*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Block 9 is located in the western part of the Masila Basin, around 90 kilometres from the prolific Masila fields. The block contains six oil discoveries and one gas discovery. Hiswah, the largest field, was brought onstream in 2005. The smaller Ras Nowmah, Al Roidhat and Ras Nowmah South fields started production between 2011 and 2013. Additional upside potential exists from undeveloped discovered resources and several drill-ready prospects across the block. Production peaked at around 5,600 b/d, restricted by the need to truck oil to export facilities. Production was suspended in 2015 following escalating civil unrest in Yemen, the evacuation of expatriate staff and the closure of the block’s export infrastructure . Production resumed in March 2019 and continued for three years, reaching highs of 5,600 b/d in 2021.
