This is what we've had wrt the core. I.e. the core results have determined where the the horizontal drill has been positioned - the "sweet spot" which is stated as being highly permeable.
UK Oil & Gas PLC (London AIM: UKOG) is pleased to announce that, following the successful completion of the Horse Hill-2 ("HH-2") Portland pilot well, Horse Hill-2z ("HH-2z") horizontal drilling operations are now underway (UKOG 85.635% net controlling interest). HH-2z aims to deliver a circa 3,200 ft horizontal section wholly within the Portland reservoir's most oil productive zone or "sweet spot", the presence and quality of which has been further defined by the pilot well's highly successful coring and electric logging programmes.
The significant oil saturations and high permeabilities observed in HH-2 core and logs, indicate that the "sweet spot" has likely contributed the lion's share of the 29,568 barrels of Brent quality oil produced to date from Portland extended well testing ("EWT") operations at HH-1.
