Quadrant Energy is planning formation testing on the Roc-2 well over the next 7-10 days, according to partner Carnarvon Petroleum.
Carnarvon announced a discovery on the well, in the North West Shelf, offshore Western Australia, earlier this month.
Today, the firm says since then the well has been drilled down to a total depth of 5290m measured depth and the rig is preparing to run wireline logging tools.
"While these deeper Milne sands are not interpreted to be commercially significant within the Roc structure in this well, the existence of reservoir and hydrocarbons at this depth are positive signals for the shallower and larger Dorado structure," says Carnarvon.
The Roc-2 well is within the WA-437-P exploration permit. Quadrant Energy is operator with 80% interest and partner Carnarvon holding 20%.
