Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Equinor, operator of production license PL 025, competed the drilling of appraisal well #15/3-11 on the #15/3-4 (Sigrun) oil and gas discovery. The test targeted three reservoir zones in the Middle Jurassic (Hugin). The well hit an oil column of about 35 n in Hugin with a 15-m sandstone layer with poor-to-moderate reservoir quality. The oil/water contact was not encountered. Preliminary estimates of the size of the discovery after the delineation well are between 1.1 and 2 MMcm of recoverable oil equivalents. No formation testing was performed, although data acquisition and sampling have been carried out. The well was drilled to 3,991 m and was terminated in Sleipner (Middle Jurassic). Water depth at the site is 109 m and the well has been permanently plugged and abandoned. Equinor is based in Stavanger.
