Oil and gas firm FX Energy has started drilling on the Komorze-3K well in the Fences concession in central Poland.
The Komorze-3K well targets one of five satellite structures located near the Lisewo-1 discovery that was completed last year.
The five satellite structures have an estimated 60 billion cubic feet in gross potential.
FX Energy vice president of operations Andy Pierce said the company is currently in the design phase of the facilities to bring the Lisewo-1 well, and if successful, the satellite wells into production in 2013.
"In addition, we are processing and interpreting the 3-D seismic data on the structural extension southeast of the Lisewo-1 discovery," added Pierce.
"We plan to drill two more wells in this area yet this year."
PGNiG is the operator of the well and the Fences concession and owns a 51% interest, while FX Energy owns 49%.
