This was covered over the holidays in the Oil & Gas weekly blog, but we thought we would give a highlight again in case readers missed it.
The Equus Gas Project has a historic exploration drilling success rate of 88%, with 15 discoveries from 17 wells.
Last Monday the companies update the markers here in the UK and Australia “Intermediate Section drilled, cased and cemented”. The countdown had started with the anticipate drilling through the target reservoir section between 2nd and 5th June 2022.
What a few may have missed was the Global Oil and Gas (ASX: GLV) update on Friday – ASX with London markets closed for the Jubilee celebrations.Â
Share talk spoke to Clontarf Energy plc (AIM: CLON) David Horgan, Chairman last Tuesday just before he flow offshore to join the team onboard the MS-1 semisubmersible, Sasanof-1 exploration well, Western Australia.
Here is a list of questions used in the interview:
-
- Nice to have you on the Share talk platform David, can you give our listeners a small overview of the company and current operations, please.
- Valaris MS-1 rig is on location, with the current schedule expects drilling through the target reservoir occurring, at the earliest, between Thursday 2nd and Sunday 5th June. Do you receive daily operational updates or will the operators notify you once they reach touch down?
- The recent acquisition for 10% of the Sasanof 1 drill under the WA-519 P license, do you have a percentage of any other upcoming drills?
- You did a placing for £3,500,000 (before expenses) working capital in April, as the Company’s board continues to assess new projects. In particularly advanced gas exploration prospects in Australia. Can you give our listeners any clues as to how that is progressing?
- How do you as a company see 2022 unfolding and what can investors look forward to?
