Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Kebo Oil & Gas Inc. had filed a permit application to drill a wildcat in Nye County, Nev., which is the company’s first project as operator-of-record in the state. Objectives and target depth for #1 Ragged Ridge-Federal in Section 3-9n-57e have not been released. The Railroad Valley drillsite is about 2 miles southwest of the one-well Currant Field and about 3 miles east-northeast of Trap Spring Field. The Currant Field discovery was completed in 1979 at #1 Currant in Section 26-10n-57e. It was tested pumping 34 bbl of 13-degree-gravity oil per day from untreated perforations at 7,038-80 ft. Production is in a volcanic section within the Lower Sheep Pass (Cretaceous). The 7,800-ft well was abandoned after producing less than 600 bbl of oil and 100 bbl of water. Kebo’s headquarters are in Portland, Texas.
