Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd and partners have begun production testing at the Kavango West 1X well in Namibia, marking the country's first cased production test. The test will evaluate six hydrocarbon-bearing zones across two formations, with results expected by late July. Downhole perforation is underway, and any hydrocarbons flowing to the surface will be flared during testing. Following a successful test, the well will be temporarily abandoned but held for future production, while preparations for a second appraisal well continue with a targeted spud date before the end of Q3 2026.
