The only reason they would be pulling pipe now if not already hitting the target would be to change the drill bit. As per tweets we know the milling of the carbon steel side wall was milled on the 7th November when the drill bit was changed to the 8.5" tricone bit as per 8th Nov tweet, the tricone bit is used for drilling rock so we know they are through the C/S tubing sidewall and they are progressing next stage which we know is to drill 1m into the target zone, the next stage is the clean up then testing period. Given the above I'm assuming drilling is complete and we are now in a clear up which involves I stallation of vital equipment, connection to the grid etc, this is part of the clear up and takes time, it's not just drill connect and done, the drilling is only one phase.
