The firms are currently planning to undertake small stimulation treatments on four of the wells to boost deliverability with the timing subject to final regulatory approval.

Paramax and Bridge have also drilled two step-out wells from the ML Investments 1-10 Willow Field discovery.

The DJS 1-15 well encountered a 230ft gross pay section that was gas condensate bearing to the base of the interval with no water present.

The well was cased and perforated at four separate intervals and produced a stable 1.25mmcfd with condensate on a 1/8" choke.

The second step-out well, the DJS 1-14, was structurally high but did not encounter the anticipated pay sand due to faulting or unconformity truncation.

The planned DJS 1-13 well will not be drilled at this time pending integration of the DJS 1-14 results into the seismic interpretation to relocate the third planned step-out, according to the company.
