Saudi Arabia and Kuwait announced a new oil discovery in the jointly operated Wafra field. The find is located in the North Wafra Warrah-Burgan reservoir, about 5 kilometers north of the main Wafra site.
Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Energy said crude flowed from the Warrah reservoir in the North Wafra (Warrah-Burgan-1) well. The output exceeded 500 barrels per day with an API gravity of 26–27 degrees.
This is the first oil discovery since production resumed in mid-2020 in the Partitioned Zone and adjacent offshore area. The ministry called the find highly significant, citing its positive impact on the countries’ energy reputation and upstream capabilities.
