IN BRIEF: 88 Energy spots light oil at Merlin-1 well

Mon, 16th Aug 2021 12:06

88 Energy Ltd - Alaska-focused oil exploration and appraisal company - Post-well evaluation at Merlin-1 well shows presence of oil in N20 and N18 targets. Analysis finds the oil has API gravity, a measure by American Petroleum Institute, between mid-30 to low-40 API, meaning it is light oil. "Given the up-dip location of the Merlin-1 well with respect to the N20, N19 and N18 reservoirs, hydrocarbon shows and sand quality at this location was consistent with pre-drill expectations," 88 Energy says.

Current stock price: 2.62 pence, up 11% on Monday
