Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd (TSX-V:RECO, OTCQX:RECAF, FRA:0XD) has made significant progress in its exploration and production testing activities in Namibia, Gabon, and Angola during the second quarter of 2026, concluding the period with $24.2 million in cash reserves. Onshore in Namibia, the KW1X well has been undergoing production testing, with downhole tests commencing in early June, successfully flowing hydrocarbons from two zones.

The company is now transitioning to an open-hole horizontal production test in the Huttenberg formation, aiming for a horizontal section of up to 1,000 meters.

Offshore in Gabon at the Ngulu project, ReconAfrica has been enhancing its seismic reprocessing capabilities, with final products and a resource report anticipated. In Angola, geochemical sampling of surface oil seeps in the company's MOU area was initiated in May and completed in June, with results expected shortly.

Financially, the company received $4.97 million from warrant exercises during the six months ending June 30, 2026, followed by an additional $594,480 after the close of the second quarter. ReconAfrica's fully diluted share count decreased by approximately 10% year-to-date. As of the quarter's end, the company held $24.2 million in cash.

Reinsborough, ReconAfrica's CEO, noted the company's strategic moves, including the ongoing production testing at KW1X in Namibia, moving toward open-hole horizontal testing, seismic reprocessing progress at Ngulu in Gabon, and completed geochemical oil seep sampling in Angola. The company's share price saw a slight increase of around 1.3% on Tuesday morning in Toronto.
