Kekra-1: Exxon Mobil all set to pack up and leave
Hours after Prime Minister Imran Khan told the nation to expect good news regarding the discovery of oil and gas reserves off Karachi coast, his special assistant on petroleum Nadeem Babar announced that offshore drilling in Kekra-1 well has been stopped owing to no oil reserves.
Amid much hype, Pakistan was hopeful of finding large oil and gas reserves in its territorial waters in the Arabian Sea.
The prime minister, on numerous occasions, said he was still hopeful that Pakistan would discover major gas reserves in offshore drilling being carried out in the Arabian Sea.
He said the nation could receive good news within two weeks. The prime minister asked the nation to offer special prayers so that the expectations attached to the drilling project come true. Imran Khan said, if found, the gas reserves would be enough to meet Pakistan’s needs for the next 50 years.
According to a report on May 15, a joint venture of four oil exploration companies completed the offshore drilling process after four months.
A consortium comprises of, Exxon Mobil, ENI, Oil and Gas Development Company, and Pakistan Petroleum Limited conducting the drill stem test to determine the real size of the oil and gas reserves in the Kekra-1 well, located around 280 kilometres away from Karachi, sources said.
The planned drilling of 5,470 meters was achieved at a cost of Rs14 billion.
The Drill Stem Test (DST) would be completed in the next three days. After the completion of the DST, a report will be prepared about the total quantity of the oil and gas reserves within a week, sources further said.
In initial estimates, the availability of around nine trillion cubic feet of gas with a large quantity of oil was assessed in the Kekra-1 well.
Due to the critical situations faced in the Kekra-1 well drilling, the exploration venture had to spend an additional $100 million in order to procure surplus steel and cement etc to drill the Kekra-1 well in another direction.
18th drilling attempt fails to find oil, gas reserves off Pakistan shore

After drilling up to over 5,000 metres, no reserves have been found, says a senior government official
ISLAMABAD: The 18th attempt to find hydrocarbons off the shore of Pakistan has been futile as no oil and gas reserves have been found.
Around four months ago, Italian firm ENI, the operator of the Kekra-1 offshore block, started drilling in a joint venture with US firm ExxonMobil — one of the world’s largest oil and gas firm — and the Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL).
“However, after drilling up to over 5,000 metres, no reserves have been found,” a senior government official told The Express Tribune.
He added that Dutch firm Shell had also carried out offshore drilling 10 years ago
but failed to find hydrocarbon reserves.
The official said the ENI, in partnership with other companies, had invested around $100 million and predicted a 13% success rate during drilling.
However, the official noted that India had found offshore reserves after 40 attempts.
“Therefore, Pakistan should continue its efforts to found reserves because there is a long area where reserves have been predicted. The drilling was made in ultra-deep waters some 280 kilometres away from Karachi coast.

Let me cite an example from Sultan Abdul Hamid Han. It was the last decade of the 19th century. The westerners suddenly became very interested in “archeology, anthropology” etc. in the Muslim countries!!?!!! They started digging in Iraq, but it was to find petroleum!! The Sultan employed the intelligence officers in disguise of day laborers working with the expedition teams!!! So, a detailed report of their findings, reservoir maps etc were ending up in the Sultan’s desk free of cost.....
