PTTEP would like to report the drilling result of an exploration well, SAER Offshore-1X, in the eastern part of Sidi Abd El Rahman Offshore Block, Egypt. Spudded on March 29, 2009, the well was drilled to a total depth of 4,059 meters on June 29, 2009 and encountered some petroleum show, but non-commercially.
