Frontera Energy Corp. 和 CGX Energy Inc. 是圭亚那近海 Corentyne 区块的合资伙伴，计划在 1 月 31 日之前利用 Noble Corp. 的Discoverer半潜式移动钻井装置开钻 Wei-1 井。

Frontera 在 11 月 28 日的新闻稿中宣布，两家公司和圭亚那政府已就时间表达成一致。根据该区块的许可条款，这些公司将于 11 月 27 日之前开钻 Wei-1，这是该区块两口承诺井中的第二口。

Frontera 和 CGX 没有透露时间表变更背后的原因，只是表示这“符合 Noble Corp. 向 CGX Resources Inc. 提供的时间表，以便 Noble Corp. Discoverer完成其当前义务”在特立尼达。”

Wei-1 开钻是继今年早些时候在 Corentyne 区块的 Kawa-1 探井发现轻质油气和凝析油之后进行的。Wei-1 将位于 Kawa-1 西北约 14 公里处，水深约 1,912 英尺（583 m）。两家公司计划钻探该井，预计总深度为 20,500 英尺（6,248 m），目标是该区块北部西河道综合体中的马斯特里赫特阶、坎帕尼亚阶和桑托尼阶老化的堆叠河道。

Frontera 首席执行官奥兰多·卡布拉莱斯 (Orlando Cabrales) 在《Wei-1》钻探准备工作中表示：“大量投资、规划和工作已经完成，钻探 Wei-1 井的准备工作已经完成，我们已准备好在钻机抵达世界上最令人兴奋的勘探区之一后进行钻探。”发布。

Corentyne区块最北端的地区位于圭亚那多产的Stabroek区块以南，埃克森美孚公司牵头的财团（包括赫斯公司和中国中海油）在那里发现了估计总可采资源量约为110亿桶油当量。 

圭亚那和苏里南共享圭亚那-苏里南海盆地，斯塔布鲁克周围其他圭亚那区块的国际石油公司以及苏里南边境一侧区块的国际石油公司继续追求斯塔布鲁克迄今为止所取得的成功。

Frontera Energy Corp. and CGX Energy Inc., joint venture partners in the Corentyne Block offshore Guyana, plan to spud the Wei-1 well no later than Jan. 31, utilizing Noble Corp.’s Discoverer semisubmersible mobile drilling unit.

The companies and the Guyanese government have agreed to the timeline, Frontera announced Nov. 28 in a press release. Under the terms of the license for the block, the companies were to have spud Wei-1, the second of two commitment wells on the block, by Nov. 27.

Frontera and CGX didn’t reveal reasons behind the change in timeline except to say it “is in keeping with the schedule provided to CGX Resources Inc. by Noble Corp. so as to allow for the Noble Corp. Discoverer to complete its current obligations in Trinidad.”

The spud of Wei-1 follows the discovery of light oil and gas condensate at the Kawa-1 exploration well in the Corentyne block earlier this year. Wei-1 will be located approximately 14 km northwest of Kawa-1 and in a water depth of approximately 1,912 ft (583 m). The companies plan to drill the well to an anticipated total depth of 20,500 ft (6,248 m) and will target Maastrichtian, Campanian and Santonian aged stacked channels in a western channel complex in the northern section of the block.

“Significant investment, planning and work has been completed in preparation to drill Wei-1 and we are ready to drill the well upon rig arrival in one of the most exciting exploration areas in the world,” Frontera CEO Orlando Cabrales said in the release.

The northernmost region of the Corentyne block is located south of Guyana’s prolific Stabroek Block where an Exxon Mobil Corp.-led consortium including Hess Corp. and China’s CNOOC have found estimated gross recoverable resources of approximately 11 billion boe. 

Guyana and Suriname share the Guyana-Suriname maritime basin and IOCs in other Guyanese blocks around Stabroek as well as IOCs in blocks on Suriname’s side of the border continue to in pursuit of the success seen to date in Stabroek.
