Tullow Oil plc provides an update on progress with the Priodontes-1 well, offshore French Guiana. This follows Tullow’s earlier statement on this well issued on 17 April 2013.
The Priodontes-1 well, offshore French Guiana, has now been drilled to a Total Depth of 6,318m in water depths of 1,750m. Having encountered no hydrocarbons in the main target reservoir, the well has been plugged and abandoned. The Stena Ice Max rig will now move to the site of the Cebus exploration well (GM-ES-4). Spudding of this well, which will test a new and totally separate fan, is due within the next two weeks.
