As stated, the drilling operations, which included production testing carried out by the ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Cyprus (Offshore) Limited - Qatar Petroleum International Upstream LLC consortium, identified the presence of a natural gas reservoir with high-quality characteristics.

It is noted that the consortium will proceed with a detailed analysis and evaluation of the data collected to more accurately determine the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the reservoir, as well as potential development and commercialization options.

In addition, the consortium will communicate to the Ministry of Energy, Trade and Industry the results of the evaluation of the data collected from the drilling and testing activities once the evaluation is completed.

Drilling operations in "Glafkos-2" began on 20 December 2021 carried out by the drilling vessel "Stena Forth", which departed from the drilling site late on Sunday evening.
