월요일, 3월 18, 2024

During drilling operations, there have been clear signs of free oil flowing into the wellbore and to surface, accompanied by consistently elevated gas readings across the ARF formation.

Key Points: 
  • During drilling operations, there have been clear signs of free oil flowing into the wellbore and to surface, accompanied by consistently elevated gas readings across the ARF formation.
  • The high pressure and potentially high gas to oil ratio in the ARF zone are projected to enhance the T100 well's production capabilities.
  • Given the notably higher reservoir pressure and gas readings observed during drilling, TAG Oil has made the proactive decision to adjust the lateral length to 308 meters (1,000 feet) as a safety measure.
  • TAG Oil will continue to provide further updates, as necessary.
