Mandy is a conventional amplitude discovery drilled in 2465′ of water. A follow-up well at Mandy to a separate fault-block in Mississippi Canyon 199 also found a high quality oil-filled reservoir with greater than 100′ net TVD oil pay.
LLOG holds 50% working interest in the Mandy prospect and is the operator of the project. The prospect was drilled with partners Mariner Energy with 35% and Apache with 15%. The block was acquired in OCS Lease Sale 206 in March 2008.
Scott Gutterman, president and CEO of LLOG Exploration, said: “LLOG’s deepwater Gulf of Mexico program is very well situated for growth with the recent first production of our Mississippi Canyon 72 field and development projects at Green Canyon 141 and Green Canyon 448 slated for start-up later this year.
“With the discovery at Mandy and continued drilling at Mississippi Canyon 503 and 547, which has recently begun, LLOG is positioning itself for significant production and reserve adds going into the future.”
