San Leon Underway at First Of Three Exploration Wells In Poland
Drilling Activity Details
Poland
Drilling Activity Summary
Description
San Leon Energy is drilling the first of three exploration wells-#1-Kety is in the Bestwina Concession in the Karpaty area in Poland. A second well is planned in the Karpaty area and the third test will be in Poland's Permian Basin. All three wells are to be relatively shallow and are in a proven hydrocarbon trend area. The #1-Kety is targeting gas in the Miocene Sandstone where there is an estimated 4 Bcf of (mid-case) recoverable from the prospect. The second Karpaty well is #1-Gieraltowice, which is in the Bielsko-Biala Concession. This well is targeting 4 Bcf of (mid-case) recoverable gas in two target reservoirs, with the Upper Carboniferous sandstone as the primary target and the Lower Carboniferous limestone as a secondary target. The Permian Basin venture, #1-Niwiska, will be in Block 243 and is targeting 400 Mbbl of (mid-case) recoverable oil and some potential gas in the naturally fractured Main Dolomite. London-based San Leon is the operator of the Bestwina and Bielsko-Biala Concessions and #1-Kety and #1-Gieraltowice wells with 60% interest in partnership with PGNiG holding the remaining 40%.
