The Nordic Rig 3 has to travel 20 miles south on Dalton Highway followed by 30 miles west on temporary ice road.
Dave is quite positive considering his cautious wording of the past:
88 Energy Managing Director, Dave Wall commented: “It has been a successful year for the Company, having matured part of the conventional potential at Project Icewine to the point of a farm-out that makes a lot of sense for our shareholders. We are now on the cusp of drilling a potentiallytransformational well, Charlie-1, in the first quarter of 2020 and are looking forward to a safe and successful operation.”
Another positive comment is:
Drilling is scheduled to commence in February 2020 with flow testing anticipated to conclude in April 2020.
yes, those lovely words - FLOW TESTING
It will be excellent if the top pair Charlie / Indigo flow on a commercial basis. Between them 175 MMBO net mean to 88E at approx 3,300 ft to 4,000 ft.
Stellar threesome at 192 MMBO net to 88E is double that depth.
Lima pair at 113 MMBO net to 88E is about 5,600 ft to 6,000 ft. (one mile).
Very exciting, I can almost smell the oil....and the $$$
