Drilling Activity Summary
Description
In Western Australia's Perth Basin Block EP389, Empire Oil & Gas NL reported completion information on the #1-Red Gully North-1 (RGN-1) discovery. The venture penetrated 53 m of net gas pay. It was drilled to 4,140 m and encountered elevated gas shows while drilling in the primary C and D sand objectives of Cattamarra Coal Measures. The 53 m of gas pay was interpreted from wireline logs. The C and D pay intervals have interpreted porosity of 10% and 9%, respectively. Additional thinner zones of interest were also observed in the secondary objective within sands of Lower Cattamarra Coal Measures. The well was cased to 4,392 m and suspended. A well testing program is planned to determine gas deliverability and gas condensate ratios, and to recover gas and condensate samples. The condensate contingent estimate for the prospect is 90 Mbbl and the prospective resources estimate is 60 Mbbl. Empire Oil & Gas is based in Claremont, Western Australia.
