Tullow finds oil in Ngara-1 well in Uganda

LONDON (Reuters) - Tullow Oil Plc said on Tuesday the Ngara-1 exploration well in Uganda encountered oil.

The well, located in the Butiaba region of Uganda Block 2, found more than eight metres of net oil pay.

"Ngara-1 is the tenth discovery in the Victoria Nile Delta play and marks the end of a very successful opening phase of the Tullow-operated exploration campaign in the Butiaba region of Block 2," said Angus McCoss, Tullow's exploration director.
