@ (A Troll) 5h5 hours ago : What’s happening at Dor Dave? Is Brockham mothballed?
@ (DL) Absolutely not mothballed at all. Read the last news release.

**Brockham BRX4Z Well Test Update - Onshore UK
Doriemus Plc (ASX: DOR) (“Doriemus” or the “Company”), announces that Angus Energy Plc, the operator of the Brockham Oil Field in the UK under Production Licence (“PL”) 235 (the “Operator”), has provided the following update regarding well testing of the Brockham X4Z well:
• The BRX4Z well has been perforated from 960 metres to 1155 metres (an interval of 195 metres) measured depth.
• All of the estimated stimulation and kill fluids that has been placed in the wellbore have now been recovered with the assistance Nitrogen. The well started flowing naturally to surface once all of the stimulation, completion and kill fluids were recovered with flow rates still steadily rising as the tests continued.
• It now appears that a part of the perforated interval is producing water, which may be inhibiting significant oil flow and therefore has not allowed sustainable flow rates of oil to be reported at this time.
• Oil of 40+ API has been recovered at surface and the analysis of samples confirmed the oil
to be Kimmeridge origin.
• The Operator is now preparing an engineering programme to isolate this water zone which will, subject to agreement from all regulators and partners, include the return of a workover rig.
• Extensive geochemical analysis and modelling of the Weald Basin conducted by and on behalf of the Operator, including innovative work on the effects of organic content on measurements of historical temperatures, indicates that the Kimmeridge is mature enough to produce oil over an area which includes Brockham.
- Brockham Production License :
The Brockham Licence is 8.9km2 in size and located in the northern portion of the onshore UK Weald Basin in Surrey south of London and 10km north-west of London’s Gatwick International Airport (Figure 3). Doriemus owns a 10% direct interest in the Brockham Oil Field which is held under UK Production Licence PL235. The Field is operated by Angus Energy Plc (the “Operator”).
-David Lenigas, Doriemus Plc’s Executive Chairman; commented:
“Confirmation from Angus Energy that the well has flowed naturally and that oil has been produced to surface are clear positives arising out of the update on the testing programme at Brockham. It is a big positive that this recent work at Brockham has now identified the presence of moveable oil at Brockham which adjoins our Horse Hill oil discovery in the Kimmeridge formation.
There is obviously more work that needs to be undertaken with this well testing programme to isolate the water zones and we look forward to further proposals from Angus in respect of tackling the water influx, which they report as having inhibited oil flow.”
