Drilling Activity Summary

Description

A Norphlet oil test has been added to Sklar Exploration Co.’s drilling program in the Florida Panhandle. The Santa Rosa County venture, #1 Pitnic 16-3, will be directionally drilled from a site in Section 15-5n-29w and will bottom to the northwest in irregular Section 16. The planned depth is 15,631 ft (15,500 ft true vertical). About 2 miles northwest of its new location, the Shreveport, La.-based company directionally drilled #1 Bates 2-2 in Section 2 to an estimated depth of 15,500 ft. No additional details are available on the Norphlet venture. Nearby production is in Section 13 at Sklar’s #1 Polk Estate 13-5. The discovery reopened Mount Carmel Field, and the well was tested pumping an unreported amount of crude from an undisclosed Norphlet zone.
