yeah i was actually going on their latest announce to get dates...but looks like we are on the same page....i also liked the volcanic reservoir of allmost 200 meters on one area alone...!!! but i think as its deepest it wont be tested at this point in time....is that correct?
L44G-D1 Appraisal Well
L44G-D1 is located in the north fault block of the seismically defined Na Sanun East
structural closure, approximately 7.4 kilometres north of the producing NS3-D1 well and
585 metres northwest of the previously drilled L44-G well.
The L44G-D1 well is a deviated well that has now been drilled to a total measured depth
(“MD”) of 1,136 meters (907 meters true vertical depth (“TVD”))
The well encountered multiple potential volcanic reservoirs at 736-755, 771-804, 836-
850, 867-896 and 955-1,136 meters MD. These intervals are in addition to the
approximately 80 meter thick volcanic zone encountered in the first logging run prior to
setting intermediate casing. Lost circulation (an indicator of good reservoir development)
of 17 bbls/hr was encountered at 867 meters MD and 53 bbls/hr at 1,112 meters MD.
Numerous oil shows and high mud gas readings were observed throughout the well.
The well has been completed for well testing which is anticipated to commence within a
week.
L44-G Appraisal Well
Drilling of the L44-G well was completed some weeks ago, but flow testing was delayed
while the drilling of the sidetrack well L44G-D1, from the same surface location, was in
progress due to the close proximity of the two well’s concrete cellars. This did not allow
access for a service rig or installation of surface facilities while the AZTEC #14 was
drilling on location.
Both wells are located within the large but as yet untested northern fault compartment of
the NSE structural closure.
As previously reported, lost circulation, an indicator of good reservoir quality, was
encountered within the volcanic section similar to the lost circulation in the other
successfully producing wells.
Testing at L44-G well is anticipated to commence within the next week.
