Lakes Oil's version of the same update: Holdgate-1 plugged and rig released after reaching 2,752m. Continuous gas readings typical of a tight gas well and carbonaceous shales in sidewall cores. Duplicate of Armour's release.
Holdgate-1 (2,752m) was plugged and the rig released. It showed continuous gas readings typical of a tight gas well and carbonaceous shales in cores. No flow or resource was reported; full assessment of tight gas potential is pending.
Lakes Oil's version of the same update: Holdgate-1 reached 2,752m total depth and drilling stopped. Logging and a seismic profile come next. Duplicate of Armour's release.
Holdgate-1 reached total depth of 2,752m and drilling has ceased. Logging and a vertical seismic profile follow, then partners will review the Strzelecki Group's unconventional potential to find a lateral well zone.
Kilgour North 1 in EP171 (100%) is drilling after surface casing was set at 319m, with a proposed depth of 2,100m. A petroleum discovery at Cow Lagoon 1 was formally notified to the NT; log interpretation continues.
Lakes Oil's version of the same update: Holdgate-1 at 2,405m after mechanical difficulties, drilling to resume toward a revised 2,800m. Duplicate of Armour's 26 June release.
Holdgate-1 hit mechanical difficulties at 2,405m. Lakes expects drilling to resume within hours, now toward a revised total depth of 2,800m rather than 2,500m. Armour is funding the well to earn 51% of PEP166.
Cow Lagoon 1 finished at 1,804m, cased and suspended. It found gas in the Lynott and Reward Formations, with flares and shows from 295m to 1,560m, proving a trap. Kilgour North 1 is due to spud 22 June.
