Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Strike Energy completed flow testing at a Western Australia venture, #4 West Erregulla. A series of flow tests were performed at various choke settings to enable characterization of the well’s deliverability parameters. Production testing was performed over a 75-m perforated interval in Kingia Sandstone from 4,847-4,962 m. During a 46-hour test, it flowed 35 MMcf of gas during testing on a 76/64-inch choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 1,770 psi. The test confirms high productivity of Kingia Sandstone. Strike Energy plans to shut in the well and conduct a long-term pressure build-up test. It will be suspended and placed on inventory for the proposed Phase 1 87TJ/d development of the West Erregulla gas field. Three appraisal wells have been drilled in the field, which is located in EP469. Adelaide-based Strike Energy is the operator with 50% interest in EP469 with partner Warrego Energy holding the remaining 50% interest.
