HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Murphy Oil Corporation (NYSE: MUR) today announced an oil discovery at the Bubale-1X exploration well in Block CI-709, located approximately 40 miles offshore Côte d’Ivoire.

The Bubale-1X well was drilled to a total depth of 20,548 feet (6,263 meters) in 7,795 feet (2,376 meters) of water. The well encountered 100 feet (30 meters) of net oil pay across two reservoirs, with preliminary assessment indicating high-quality light oil.

“Early results at Bubale reinforce the prospectivity of our Côte d’Ivoire acreage,” said Eric Hambly, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased with the results to date, which underscore the value of a disciplined and consistent exploration approach. Our immediate focus now is advancing evaluation plans to define the discovery’s full potential.”

The Bubale-1X well is the third and final well in Murphy’s current three-well exploration campaign in Côte d’Ivoire. Following these results, Murphy will move into the next phase of evaluation, with one well planned for the second half of 2026 to test the extent of the discovery.

The Bubale-1X well was spud in late February 2026 by Murphy CI-709 Oil Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Murphy Oil Corporation and operator of Block CI-709. Murphy holds a 90 percent working interest in the block, with Société Nationale d’Opérations Pétrolières de la Côte d’Ivoire (PETROCI) holding the remaining 10 percent.

Major Drivers Behind MUR’s Q1 Earnings Performance

Murphy Oil’s first-quarter total production is expected to be in the range of 164,000-172,000 barrels of oil equivalents per day (Boep/d). Nearly 93,400 Boep/d will come from Murphy Oil’s domestic operation in the Gulf of America and Eagle Ford shale. The first-quarter production guidance takes into consideration the downtime in the Gulf of America due to planned facility maintenance and maintenance of some onshore assets.

The company is expected to have benefited from the increase in commodity prices, resulting from the Middle East crisis. The company has also been reducing its operating expenses, which can also have a positive impact on first-quarter earnings.

Murphy Oil planned to bring 15 wells online in the Eagle Ford Shale, which are expected to have an impact on first-quarter earnings.
