Faroe Petroleum开始Njord North Flank-2井钻探作业

Faroe Petroleum, the independent oil and gas company focusing principally on exploration, appraisal and production opportunities in Norway and the UK, is pleased to announce the commencement of the Njord North Flank-2 exploration well 6407/7-9 S (Faroe 7.5%).

The NF-2 prospect is located in Licence PL107C immediately north of the Njord field (Faroe 7.5%). The well will target Middle and Lower Jurassic sandstone reservoirs of the Ile and Tilje formations in a fault-bounded structural closure, with a TD in the Lower Jurassic ?re Formation. If successful, NF-2 could add further reserves and value to the Njord Future Project.

The NF-2 exploration well, located in approximately 323 metres of water, is operated by Statoil Petroleum AS (20%) using the Songa Delta drilling rig, with co-venturers ENGIE E&P Norge AS (40%), DEA E&P Norge AS (30%) and VNG Norge AS (2.5%). Results from the well will be announced when drilling operations have been completed.
