Tunisia
Pioneer has a substantial acreage position in the Ghadames Basin of southern Tunisia with an interest in five blocks totaling approximately three million acres. To date, Pioneer has successfully explored in the Adam, Cherouq, Borj El Khadra and Anaguid blocks. Oil production from these blocks continues to grow as new discoveries are connected to existing infrastructure.
The Company is operator of the Cherouq block. Facilities are currently being constructed to handle growing production. Pioneer is also operator of the Anaguid block, where its first exploration well was a discovery.
Pioneer and the other producers in the country are working with the Tunisian government to evaluate the opportunity to expand infrastructure and supply gas volumes from southern Tunisia to existing markets in northern Tunisia.
