The report obtained by the company, contained the independent evaluation of ERCE on the prospective gas and liquids resources of the Butler prospect, which operates on permit EP487.
Upon receiving the independent assessment report, the company proposed to drill the first well on the Butler prospect approximately 50m inside the northern boundary of the permit EP487.
The proposed location of the first drill hole âButler-1 wellâ is 1.9km from the Gibb River Road and 50m within the permit, which allowed the well trajectory to intersect both the most attractive portion of the Butlerâs Sand Prospect and the Basin Centred Gas System within the Laurel formation.
The prognosis of well revealed that it is likely to intersect around 220m of good quality Laurel in Package 3 of the prospect, which hosts the wet gas window. Apart from the good quality Laurel in the wet gas window, the prognosis also revealed that the well is likely to intersect a total thickness of almost, 1,700m of tight Laurel, of which around 140m is estimated by the company to be of wet gas window and remainder to be of the dry gas window.
However, Doriemus mentioned that the location of the well is just indicative and will require further final site review and approvals from all the related parties.
