These intervals have thicknesses of 10m, 67m and 114+m. The base of the lowermost sand interval is yet to be penetrated.
Based on mud logging and Logging While Drilling petrophysical data, the three gross sand intervals are interpreted to contain hydrocarbons. The nature and significance of the interpreted hydrocarbon intersections will be evaluated after wireline logging and detailed log analysis upon the completion of drilling.
A revised total well depth is dependent on geological data, and will be advised when available. The Sedco-703 semi-submersible rig is drilling the exploration well, which is operated by ConocoPhillips.
