Global Oil & Gas Limited is pleased to announce that Western Gas (“WGC”) has provided an operational update on the drilling of the Sasanof-1 exploration well.
Highlights
- Over the weekend the 17-1/2” hole section was drilled to planned depth at 2072.7mTVDBRT.
- The geology of the intermediate section was assessed via the Logging While Drilling tools and all formation tops were in accordance with pre- drill predictions. This illustrates the excellent quality seismic data and demonstrates consistency with the near-by Mentorc-1 and Mentorc-2 discoveries.
- 13-3/8” casing was run and cemented in accordance with the Well Operations Management Plan.
- The next stage of operations has commenced with the rig Blow Out Preventer (BOP) and marine riser being prepared for deployment.
- This will be followed by drilling operations in the 12-1/4” target hole section through the target reservoir intervals.
