I called well on the SLB truck & Dakad, SLB use intervention, must be industry jargon.

Plus from latest photo, the coiled tubing unit base, looks like its being prepared to be lifted onto the christmas tree, its surrounding scaffolding is visible from behind the crane.

“Early morning assembly of services as I look out of the office door – preparations going smoothly and on schedule”

And I expect it a Schlumberger Truck on the LHS, maybe with detonators ???

Sad tag team, back together, but nothing new here. Dentistry 101 :-)

Separately, I do not believe that we can test from top down, using plugs. Even the most hollow plug versions (remember 11 m of shallow sands) , reducing the working diameter for all other passing equipment, that need to perforate, acid wash, swab, etc. Possibly hollow plug "one time" but certainly not twice or more, with our original small piping dimensions.

And, as I posted several days ago, I think PRD would be amiss not to swab MOU-3 bottom waters & muds, lowering the hydrostatic pressure differential & if needed, aciding the "be-jesus" out of the lower perforations, before any explosive perforations can even be considered.

"AI" my arse, knows nothing about "bottom up" :-)

Just copy the full link into the browser & that should work !

PS - use the full length of the link, to land on MOU-3 !!!!

Thanks elCheapo, great name, a man after my own heart, but I prefer to describe myself as a minimalist :-)

I do believe with KeithOz, NickNorth & others, we tested this site before with no success, but then again gas never flowed, so how could it work :-)

Here are the co-ords of MOU-3 in the center & MOU-2, 1-2k to the right.

Finally, after clearing all my history, memory & caches & eventually Copernicus asking me to sign in again, to which I chose "anonymous", my Copernicus images are back to normal. Sorry OldSlow, no SWIR or Moisture Index flaring signs at MOU-3 tonight, the next pass posted around Monday evening.

And for the exaggerators, there is no obvious movement, visible to my eyes on MOU's 1,2,4, or 5.

Evening Oldslow, maybe like bald faced, they have no cojones !!!

This evenings Sat Pass is coming out very square pixilated on my laptop, not the regular smoothed out more detailed view, but this has been happening on & off for several weeks now, not sure why ? Anyone else seeing this ? Plus my memory cache should be clear. I see that Copernicus log your usage on its Dashboard screen & I use this over three different share sites. Great week, no for a greater month & year. GLA, donalb

The usual suspects continuing there "crochet" style movements of umbilicals back to Deepwater Atlas or the FPS platform.

Plus passenger ship Big P, also servicing Noble Black Rhino enroute, as has Tug Supply ship Great Expectations.

Maybe Friday afternoon is the weekly crew rotation schedule from Deepwater & FPS, etc.

Wow highlandmatt, that's more "maybes" that an Oasis song, but the again "maybe this is going to be the Well that makes me" or "your my Wonder Well".

Silly summer season has officially begun :-)

With all the Italfluids equipment & contractors, etc, arriving on site, I really don't understand why we don't re-test the lower sand-jetted sands first, using the famous "mud/water scooper" machine & a good few doses of acidisation. Minimal extra costs & much cheaper than a 2nd well. Once the top section is perforated, it becomes much more difficult to test the lower sands. But wtfdik. GLA, donalb

ps- very happy with 5.70 p close today for a nice even 100% gain for the week :-)

Funny, wasnt even looking for it, but it popped up an a Italfluids search :-)

More a testing update to previous articles, and for reasons unknown, talks as much again about Tendara & makes things sound way more complicated than reality ??? Whose agenda are they pushing ???

Are people mad, a 4 day old account, posting over 8 shares, already insulting people & picking fights and first post on PRD blaming GRH.

Stinks of Bold & Co. Then again, its probably themselves, ticking themselves up.

The high end Chark is mostly full for next 2 weeks, but that's only for the suits & top management !!!

The working class Atlas has limited availability for 2 weeks !!!

The cheapest out of town, but near MOU-3 has lots of availability, but it is very big & more holiday oriented.

PS - Flights to Fez, super expensive, so no plans yet to travel & Tim Thompson has been allowed tell us more that we ever knew before :-)

So expect a much lower head count, 1/2 suits, 1/2 oilies.

Hi Swiss, we can add ONHYM at the 2025 USA-Africa Energy Forum (USAEF) in Houston, on the 5-6th August 2025.

Even better, on same photo, me thinks its a coil tubing unit on the white truck.

Anyone know if its CTU or wireline rig that we use or both ???

“Piping being put in place ready for rigless testing, connecting Xmas tree production outlet to Itafluids surface well testing equipment”

Plus photo, wow, rock & rolling on site.

Correcting myself, not long out of bed & already melting in the heat here.

The proposed autoroute is to the right of MOU-2, not as I first thought.

A good day, week, maybe month & year. GLA, donalb

PS - Keith are those road works photos between MOU-2 and the old Guercif N15 & A2 road on ramp & Peage ???

Well Testing

Italfluid has a wide well testing experience in on-shore and off-shore operational scenarios. Our experience embraces High Pressure and High Temperature well testing.

All Italfluid equipment are H2S Service, and most of them can operate in classified zone 2 (ATEX equipment)

Italfluid has available Special Gas Burner noiseless – flare confined, smokeless, to operate in sensitive area and/or complex conditions.

PS - there are 2 homes within 150-200 m of MOU3 pad, but its very much an isolated pad, with lots of scrub land for CNG site. Also, the are at least 3 high power pylons running E-W near the A2 motorway. Would Guercif not be a good place for a new gas fired power plant ???
