(WO)——Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. 宣布，与 Falcon Oil & Gas Australia Limited 的合资伙伴 Tamboran (B2) 已成功完成 EP98 Amungee NW 3H (“3H”) 井的钻井作业。 ）有限公司。

A3H 井的钻探、下套管和固井总测量深度 (“D”) 为 3,837 m，其中包括 Amungee 段 B 页岩中 1,100 m 的水平段。

该井在总垂直深度（“VD”）为 2,272 m 处与 Amungee B 段页岩相交，并发现了明显的天然气显示，与钻前预期一致。

Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (H&P)（纽约证券交易所代码：HP）的钻探耗时 17.9 天，平均钻速为 214 m/天，比 Amungee 2H (“2H”) 井快 20 天。超规格 FlexRig® Flex 3 钻机实现了预期的钻井效率。

计划于 2024 年第二季度北领地雨季结束后实施刺激计划。

A3H 井的钻井和固井总成本为 1260 万澳元。与 A2H 相比，成本降低了 180 万澳元，这证明了 H&P 超规格 FlexRig® Flex 3 钻机对以前钻井经验的应用以及钻井技术的改进。

此外，EP117 SS1H 井的增产活动预计将于 2023 年 11 月开始，预计 2024 年初达到 IP30 流量。

Falcon 首席执行官 Philip Ouigley 评论道：“我们很高兴能够成功完成 A3H 水平井段，并且对 H&P 在 A3H 达到总深度的钻井天数以及相对于 A2H 记录的成本降低感到非常鼓舞。现在，我们期待 Beetaloo 下一阶段的运营，即 SS1H 的增产和扩展生产测试将于 11 月开始。一旦结果出来，我们将继续更新市场。”

(WO) – Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. announced that drilling operations on the Amungee NW 3H (“A3H”) well in EP98 have been successfully completed with Falcon Oil & Gas Australia Limited’s joint venture partner, Tamboran (B2) Pty Limited.

The A3H well was drilled, cased and cemented to a total measured depth (“TD”) of 3,837 m, including a horizontal section of 1,100 m in the Amungee Member B-shale.

The well intersected the Amungee Member B-shale at a total vertical depth (“TVD”) of 2,272 m and encountered significant gas shows, in line with pre-drill expectations.

Drilling took 17.9 days, at an average rate of 214 m per day, and at 20 days faster than the Amungee 2H (“A2H”) well, the Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (H&P), (NYSE: HP), super-spec FlexRig® Flex 3 Rig delivered the anticipated drilling efficiencies.

A stimulation program is planned for the second quarter of 2024, following the Northern Territory wet season.

Total costs for the drilling and cementing of the A3H well was A$12.6 million. Cost reductions of A$1.8 million compared to A2H, demonstrates the application of learnings from previously drilled wells and the improvement in drilling technology with the H&P super-spec FlexRig® Flex 3 Rig.

In addition, stimulation activities for the SS1H well in EP117 are on track to commence in November 2023 with IP30 flow rates anticipated in early 2024.

Philip O’Quigley, CEO of Falcon commented, “We are delighted to have successfully completed the A3H horizontal well section and are very encouraged by the drilling days achieved by H&P in reaching TD at A3H and the cost reductions recorded relative to A2H. We now look forward to the next phase of operations in the Beetaloo with the stimulation and extended production testing of SS1H commencing in November. We will continue to update the market as results become available.”
