Reach Energy Bhd drilled its first exploration well on its Emir-Oil asset in the Kariman field, Kazakhstan on Oct 6.

The well is expected to confirm the larger extent of the hydrocarbon resource being exploited in the Kariman structure.

The expected success of this exploration well would increase the group’s 2P (proved and probable) reserves by "a significant amount".
