Vaalco Energy's new Gabon well hits 2,000 BOPD, boosting growth and debt repayment plans.

Vaalco Energy completed its Gabon drilling campaign with a new well producing 2,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD).

Strong commodity prices and recent discoveries position Vaalco Energy to accelerate debt repayment and achieve its goal of tripling production from 2024 levels. High oil prices make these growth targets more achievable and profitable for the company.
