Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Vintage Energy has received approval to fracture-stimulate the #1-Vali ST1 discovery in Queensland’s ATP 2021 permit area. The plan currently calls for fracturing five stages in the Patchawarra section and one in the deeper Tirrawarra/Basal Patchawarra section. The gas saturated zones to be fracture stimulated are at depths of between 2,810 m and 3,140 m and will be followed by flow testing. According to the Goodwood, South Australia–based company, the Vali gas discovery has a net 2-C contingent resource of 18.9 Bcf. Vintage is the operator and holds 50% interest. Partners in the prospect are Metgasco (25%) and Bridgeport (25%).
