Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Beach Energy hit a 23-ft. gas column with the #1 Brownlow exploration well at the PEL106 permit in the Cooper Basin, South Australia. Beach, with headquarters in Adelaide, will evaluate additional hydrocarbon shows in the basal Patchawarra formation by drillstem tests between 8,908-31 ft. before setting production casing. The #1 Brownlow lies about 1.2 miles north of #1-Middleton and five miles northwest of Raven Field. Beach has 50% equity in a farm-in block on PEL-106 and Drillsearch holds the remaining 50%. The next well in Beach's drilling program is #1 Canunda.
