“In the Seabee Formation, an attempt was made to take a sample from the Lower Lima target, being the better of the two Lima targets. This attempt was unsuccessful due to insufficient reservoir quality; however, given that these targets were not intersected optimally, there still may be potential for higher quality reservoir at a different location. Excellent Vertical Seismic Profile (“VSP”) data was obtained in the well, which will now be used in conjunction with other log data and the existing 3D seismic, to remap these targets. Sidewall core analysis will also assist with determining where improved reservoir is likely to exist. Mud gas, observed while drilling, in the Seabee indicated that the hydrocarbons at this horizon are heavier than those in the Torok and this is the horizon where “live oil” was observed across the shakers in the nearby Malguk-1 well. Premier Oil has informed the Joint Venture that it intends to withdraw from the project, as the well did not meet its pre-drill expectations. On withdrawal the Company’s working interest will increase to 75% in Area A including the confirmed condensate discovery in the Torok Formation.”
We had great sidewall cores to at least know that Lima potentially is on the cards showing heavy oil in the mud and gas... let’s hope that the sidewall core was as good for the HRZ Dave mentioned at globe this was key at getting best data possible...
This may recover but I won’t be holding my breath for the big payout until results in July if they come In Good to keep us in the game.. more cards on the table should keep more options open and better prospects.. all ifs and buts them are the apples..bitter sweet again I know. Maybe for some, safer shores are a better choice with more stable outcomes than AIM casino.. imho
Bigger things to worry about at the moment with Coronavirus and economy.. stay healthy, keep safe and happy. Dazzle
