APA 公司及其合作伙伴 Lagniappe Alaska LLC 和 Oil Search (Alaska) LLC 报告称，他们的 Sockeye-2 勘探井在阿拉斯加北坡发现石油。

拥有阿帕奇公司的 APA 表示，该井已钻至约 10,500 英尺深，发现了一个优质储层，净油层厚度约为 25 英尺。两家公司表示，该油井的孔隙度和渗透率均好于预期，渗透率有待通过流动测试确认。

两家公司表示，Sockeye 勘探区面积为 25,000 英亩至 30,000 英亩，符合合作伙伴的地质和地球物理模型，可降低该地区许多其他勘探区的风险。这是该合作伙伴在州土地上 325,000 英亩的位置钻探的第二口成功勘探井。King Street-1 于 2024 年 4 月发现石油。

Apache 持有 50% 的权益，运营商 Lagniappe 和合作伙伴 Oil Search 各持有 25% 的权益。Lagniappe 是Armstrong Oil & Gas的附属公司。Oil Search 是Santos Ltd的子公司。

APA Corp. and its partners Lagniappe Alaska LLC and Oil Search (Alaska) LLC reported their Sockeye-2 exploratory well found oil on Alaska’s North Slope.

APA, which owns Apache Corp., said the well was drilled to about 10,500 ft and found a high-quality reservoir with approximately 25 ft of net oil pay. The companies said the porosity and permeability were better than expected, with the permeability to be confirmed through a flow test.

The companies said the Sockeye prospect is amplitude-supported across 25,000 acres to 30,000 acres, and confirms the partners’ geologic and geophysical models, derisking numerous additional prospects in the area. It’s the second successful exploratory well drilled by the partnership in a 325,000-acre position on state lands. King Street-1 found oil in April 2024.

Apache holds a 50% working interest and operator Lagniappe and partner Oil Search each hold 25%. Lagniappe is an affiliate of Armstrong Oil & Gas. Oil Search is a subsidiary of Santos Ltd.
