RE: Colter South......31 Jul 2019 17:08
I have been looking at that page from the ADL/Corallian presentation re the five licenses and I think I have changed my mind on what they will do next.
If you look at the RNSs re Colter and Colter South they talked about a working hydrocarbon system in the Cornbrash and Lower Oxfordian.
"In addition, the side-track encountered oil and gas shows in the Jurassic Cornbrash-Lower Oxfordian interval, the producing reservoirs in the Kimmeridge oilfield, and this provides an interesting potential target on trend to the west within the onshore licences held by the Joint Venture"
It may be that if they can find a suitable drill site that they attempt to test the Cornbrash and then long reach drill out to Colter South. As usual we will have all the unpleasantries of local authority planning permissions, HSE, Environmental Agency and the OGA to deal with. So unless they can find a way to truncate the process it may be that nothing happens for a while.
The quickest way might be to long reach drill from Wytch Farm to the Cornbrash and then continue out to Colter South.
All of these options will have to be mapped out, gamed and costed. The Purbeck prospect looks huge on the map.
It would suit ADL if nothing much happens for a while whilst it sorts out its cashflow in Indonesia. If it can sort out a couple hundred of bopd in Indo, it will reduce the dilution required for the Wessex Basin.
I will have a look at this chap on the RBD page.
