North Slope/Tofkat prospect is location for exploratory tests
Drilling Activity Details
Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Brooks Range Petroleum Corp., Anchorage, plans to drill two exploratory tests on its Tofkat prospect about five miles east of Nuiqsut on Alaska's North Slope. Brooks Range originally named the program Titania, but decided to change the name to avoid confusion with ConocoPhillips' Titania exploration project. The #1 Tofkat and a second directional test will be drilled this winter from an ice pad in Section 11-10n-5e, Umiat Meridian, east of the Colville River. The #1 Tofkat site is six miles southeast of two wells drilled in the Colville River Unit-#1 Nanuk and #2 Nanuk-and four miles west of #1 Oberon in Section 9-10n-6e. The latter exploratory well was completed in early 2003 as a 7,580-ft. dry hole.
