Drilling Campaigns
The Drilling BU Successfully Kicks Off Its Drilling Campaign
The 2022 HPCL Land Drilling Campaign was kicked off with the drilling of FC468 in the Point Fortin Central fi eld. The well was spudded on the April 9th 2022 and drilled to a depth of 3,505ft MD using WSL Rig-2. The well’s objective was to accelerate production from the same compartment as the existing FC466 well (completed in 2019).
FC468 successfully encountered 293ft of net oil sand in the primary Cruse objective based on log evaluation, and this was in line with pre-drill expectations. Additionally, several up-hole recompletion intervals were penetrated and logged. Successful completion across the primary objective was achieved on May 15th and current production is 64 bopd.
Four additional wells have since been drilled and are in varying stages of completion and production optimisation – FC-469, 1MK-96, PS-611 and FR-1818.
