Initial clean-up of well stimulation fluids was underway and expected to last several days, followed by flow rate testing.

The board said the first shipment of produced fluid had been successfully transported to facilities in the neighbouring Block XIX.

A startup ceremony held on 25 October was attended by high-ranking Mongolian officials, including the state secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources and the chairman of the Mineral Resources and Petroleum Authority.

Petro Matad said it would provide further operational updates as production progressed.
