The Jabu oil field has been discovered in Eastern Province, following the flow of Arabian Extra Light oil in Jabu-1 well at a rate of 800 barrels a day (b/d). Sayahid oil field was also discovered, where Arabian Extra Light Oil flowed in Sayahid-2 well at a rate of 630 b/d. Additionally, Ayfan oil field was discovered, where Arabian Extra Light oil in Ayfan-2 well flowed at a rate of 2,840 b/d, with 440,000 standard cubic feet a day (cf/d) of associated gas. The Jubaila oil reservoir has been discovered in the Berri field after Arabian Light oil flowed in Berri-907 well at a rate of 520 b/d, associated with 200,000 cf /d of gas. In addition, Unayzah-A oil reservoir was discovered in Mazalij field after the flow of Arabian Super Light oil in Mazalij-64 well at a rate of 1,011 b/d, along with 920,000 cf/d of associated gas. In the Empty Quarter, the Nuwayr oil field has been discovered after the flow of Arabian Medium oil in Nuwayr-1 well at a rate of 1,800 b/d, with 550,000 cf/d of associated gas. Additionally, the oil field Damda was discovered, where Arabian Medium oil flowed in Damda-1 well at a rate of 200 b/d from Mishrif-C reservoir, while Arabian Extra Light oil flowed from Mishrif-D reservoir in the same well at a rate of 115 b/d. Also, the discovery of Qurqas oil field was confirmed after Arabian Medium oil flowed in Qurqas-1 well at a rate of 210 b/d. For natural gas, Prince Abdulaziz announced the discovery of the Ghizlan gas field in the Eastern Province, where gas flowed in Ghizlan-1 well at a rate of 32 million cf/d from the Unayzah B/C reservoir, with 2,525 barrels of condensates. Also, the Araam gas field was discovered after gas flowed in Araam-1 well from Unayzah B/C reservoir at a rate of 24 million cf/d with 3,000 barrels of condensates. The Qusaiba unconventional gas reservoir was also discovered in Mihwaz field in the Eastern Province, where gas flowed in Mihwaz-193101 well at a rate of 3.5 million cf/d, with 485 barrels of condensates. In the Empty Quarter, Arab-C gas reservoir was discovered in Marzouq field, where gas flowed in Marzouq-8 well at a rate of 9.5 million cf/d. The same well also resulted in the discovery of Arab-D gas reservoir, after the flow of gas at a rate of 10 million cf/d. Additionally, the Upper Jubaila gas reservoir was discovered from the same well, where gas flowed at a rate of 1.5 million cf/d. "These discoveries will also support sustained economic growth and prosperity, in line with Vision 2030 and Saudi Arabia’s ambitious goals to fully harness its natural resources and enhance global energy security," Prince Abdulaziz was quoted as saying.
