The find was made after Simrit 2 was drilled to test the western end of a Simrit anticline structure  and encountered net oil in Cretaceous, Jurassic and Triassic reservoirs after drilling to a total measured depth of 3,700 metres (12,136 feet).

 Hunt Oil operated the well which has not encountered any oil-water contract, Afren stated.

 Afren chief executive Osman Shahenshah said Simrit 2 is the second major oil find for the company this year after success at the Okoro East discovery well off south east Nigeria.
