Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Results were announced from a Cooper/Eromanga Basin exploratory test in Queensland’s ATP2021 license area. Adelaide-based operator Vintage Energy reported that #1ST1 encountered 35 m of interpreted log net gas pay over a gross 312-m interval in the targeted Patchawarra. Gas was also recovered in the Nappamerri group. Additional gas and oil shows were found in Toolachee, Birkhead and Westbourne. The venture was drilled to 3,217 m, and wireline logging and data analysis is underway. The gas saturation has been calculated in the upper section of Patchawarra, above the VC50 Coal. Log data across the section below VC50 Coal is planned to be acquired after well conditioning. The well will be cased and suspended.
