Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Covington, La.-based LLOG Exploration plans to drill several deepwater tests on previously undrilled Green Canyon Block 612. According to an exploration plan filed by the company, three tests could be drilled from offsetting surface locations in the northeastern portion of the tract. Water depth in the area is 4,200 ft. Southwest is BHP Billiton’s Shenzi (Green Canyon Block 654) Field, which came online in 2007. Wells in the deepwater reservoir produce from Miocene at 22,542-28,865 ft. South of LLOG’s prospect is BP’s Atlantis Field in Green Canyon Block—online since 2006, it produces from Williana, Pliocene and Miocene at 16,460-22,486 ft.
