The discovery was made at the El Basant-2 well located in the West El Manzala Concession, the company said in a statement.

“This acreage is particularly attractive to us as we have established production in the area and we are able to bring new discoveries on production quickly and at comparatively low cost,” said Hany Elsharkawi, the firm’s country director in Egypt.

“Dana Gas has already applied for a Development Lease, which we expect to be granted soon, and we anticipate a production start-up by the end of March 2009.”
