The well is the company’s second exploration well in the Officer Basin and reached a total measured depth of 2,453.7m at the top of the interpreted Mesoproterozoic section.

There were excellent thick reservoirs intersected throughout the Neoproterozoic section, the company said.

Although there were encouraging shows in the well, the wireline log data acquired after completion of drilling did not show any commercial accumulations of hydrocarbons.

As a result, the well has been plugged and abandoned by the company.

Rodinia is engaged in the exploration, acquisition and development of petroleum and natural gas assets in the Officer Basin of Australia.
