加拿大横贯公司（Trans Canada）的新Lloyd 5-23-49-1W4井获得正式批准。该公司获得了位于阿尔伯塔省洛伊德明斯特附近的七分支井及钻探项目的钻井许可证和钻探许可证。

该公司将参与七井段Sparky多分支井的钻探，由Croverro担任作业者。新拟建的5-23多分支井将位于该公司12-14多分支井的相邻位置。

这口第三口多分支水平井预计将与该公司7HZ LLOYD 12-14-49-01W4井类似。该井于2023年钻探，在Sparky油层中发现了2486米厚的油层。12-14 Sparky多分支井目前已产油超过10万桶。

新获许可的5-23多分支井预计钻探后将开采约3000米的Sparky地层。该井计划于今年夏季晚些时候开钻，具体时间取决于钻机的可用性。

Trans Canada received formal approval for its new Lloyd 5-23-49-1W4 well. The company was issued a well license and drill permit for the seven-leg-multilateral well and drill program near Lloydminster, Alberta.

The company will participate in the drilling of a seven-leg Sparky multilateral well, with Croverro as operator. The newly proposed 5-23 multilateral well will be situated adjacent to the company’s 12-14 multilateral well.

This third multi-lateral horizontal well is expected to be similar to the company’s 7HZ LLOYD 12-14-49-01W4 well, which was drilled in 2023 and encountered 2486 m of oil pay in the Sparky Oil Formation. The 12-14 Sparky multilateral well has now produced over 100,000 barrels of oil.

The newly permitted 5-23 multilateral well, when drilled, is planned to open an estimated 3000 m of Sparky formation. The well is scheduled to be drilled later this summer subject to rig availability.
