It said the drilling operations would commence in the next few days, following official ministry inspection and approval.

"The company is pleased that the rig is on site and we are ready to commence drilling operations in the next few days," said executive chairman Leo Koot.

"The company notes that its preferential access to the Talon #38 rig means there is no material cost whilst waiting for the drilling operations to commence."
