88 Energy Ltd - Alaska-focused oil exploration company - Says it will conduct a flow rate and well stimulation program at its Hickory-1 well, expected to commence in mid-February. Testing for the well, which is located at 88's Phoenix project in Alaska, has a budget of USD11 million and is fully funded according to the company. The Hickory-1 well was first spudded in March and was suspended in April ahead of the upcoming flow tests. The tests' design, planning and logistics are complete, the company says, and permitting is on track for the end of January. Testing will focus on the well's slope fan system and shelf margin deltaic, both of which will be tested separately. The company says that the tests are intended to provide "critical" information for refining the well's development plans, including the reservoirs' durability, fluid compositions, pressures and connectivity.
