"Turkey: TransAtlantic Petroleum to produce from first Selmo oil field infill well

TransAtlantic Petroleum Corp has announced recent drilling activities and in Turkey, the Company expects its first Selmo oil field infill well, the S-54, to commence oil production in a few days. The Company will resume testing the Atesler-1 well shortly upon the arrival of a straddle packer. The packer will isolate certain water bearing zones to determine if a preliminary oil show will be economic to produce. In the Arpatepe field area, the Company is coordinating with its 50% partner, Aladdin Middle East, on the drilling of the Arpatepe-3 well, which is expected to be drilled in the fourth quarter. The Company is also coordinating plans with Aladdin to drill additional exploration and appraisal wells to test other prospect areas on the Arpatepe licence."
