(WO) “Pennpetro Energy PLC 是一家专注于德克萨斯州冈萨雷斯县生产和开发的独立石油和天然气公司，该公司表示，位于德克萨斯州冈萨雷斯县 Peach Creek 油田的 Whisling Straits 5H 井已钻探至 10,195 口。英尺测量深度（“D”），真实垂直深度（“VD”）为 7,632.22 英尺。

Whisling Straits 5H井：完井和生产

在达到目标并穿透微裂缝群的顶部部分后，决定对井进行定向钻进。该水平井现已完成生产，在 Austin Chalk 层段内拥有超过 2,500 英尺的裸眼井。

在 8,120 英尺高处的钻井平台的撇油罐上，多次长时间观察到石油泄漏，记录到 129-226 单位的天然气，包括 C1 到 C4。

Whisling Straits 5H 井是 Pennpetro 100% 控股子公司 Nobel Petroleum USA Inc 与 Millennium PetroCapital Corporation (“illennium”) 最近签署的 250,000 年内签署的参与、开发和选择协议中第一口钻探的井。位于德克萨斯州冈萨雷斯县的 - 英亩（1,011 平方公里）共同利益区 (“MI”) 石油合资企业。

冈萨雷斯县 AMI 占地 250,000 英亩（1,011 平方公里），位于休斯顿正西约 140 英里处，将为 PPP 的诺贝尔公司提供世界级油田的大量低风险开发选项。

Nobel 支付 33.33% 的成本来钻探和完成与储罐相连的联合开发油井，获得 25% 的净工作权益（18.75% 的净收入利息）以及探矿费，其中包括与租赁、土地相关的沉没成本、合法、3D 地震许可、地质和地球物理分析。

Pennpetro首席执行官和Nobel总裁对Whistling Straits 5H评价良好

Pennpetro 首席执行官汤姆·埃文斯 (Tom Evans) 评论道：“我们很高兴实现了我们的目标，并引导钻头穿过地震异常的中心，我们将其解释为上奥斯汀白垩内的微裂缝群。远期计划是安装测试设施，然后立即完成该井。”

Nobel 总裁安迪·克利福德 (Andy Clifford) 补充道：“Wisco Moran 16 号钻机的钻井人员、定向人员和 Millennium 现场管理人员通过精确放置侧钻并管理钻头，完成了出色的钻井工作。目标。我们在距离目标深度 10 英尺的范围内着陆了该井，我们在 7 英寸套管鞋下方有超过 2,000 英尺的横向剖面和超过 2,500 英尺的裸眼井，可用于生产。这口井证明了微裂缝群的存在。”

(WO) – Pennpetro Energy PLC, an independent oil and gas company focusing on production and development in Gonzales County, Texas, advised that the Whistling Straits 5H well in the Peach Creek Oil Field, Gonzales County, Texas, has been drilled to 10,195 feet measured depth (“MD”) with a 7,632.22 feet true vertical depth (“TVD”).

Whistling Straits 5H Well: completion and production

The decision was made to TD the well, having reached the target and penetrated the crestal portion of the microfracture swarm. The horizontal well will now be completed as a producer with over 2,500 feet of open hole within the Austin Chalk interval.

Oil shows were seen on the rig’s skimmer tanks from 8,120 feet over numerous extended intervals with gas flares registering between 129-226 units of gas including C1 through to C4.

Pennpetro Energy's joint venture in Gonzales County, Texas

The Whistling Straits 5H well is the first well to be drilled under its recently signed Participation, Development and Option Agreement between Pennpetro’s 100% owned subsidiary, Nobel Petroleum USA Inc, and Millennium PetroCapital Corporation (“Millennium”) within the 250,000-acre (1,011 km2) Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”) petroleum joint venture in Gonzales County, Texas.

The Gonzales County 250,000-acre (1,011 km2) AMI is located about 140 miles due west of Houston and will provide PPP’s Nobel with a large inventory of low-risk development options in a world class oilfield.

Nobel is paying 33.33% of the cost to drill and complete this joint development well connected to the storage tanks for a net 25% working interest (18.75% net revenue interest) as well as a prospect fee which covers sunk costs relating to leasing, land, legal, 3D seismic licensing, geological and geophysical analysis.

Pennpetro's CEO and Nobel's President comment on Whistling Straits 5H well

Tom Evans, Pennpetro’s CEO, commented, “We are pleased to have hit our target objective and steered the drill bit through the heart of the seismic anomaly which we interpret as a microfracture swarm within the Upper Austin Chalk. The forward plan is to install test facilities and then complete the well imminently.”

Andy Clifford, Nobel’s President, added, “The drilling crew on the Wisco Moran Rig 16, directional crew and the Millennium site management have done an excellent drilling job with their precision placing of the side-track and managing the drill bit through the target. We landed the well within 10 feet of our target depth and we have over 2,000 feet of lateral section and over 2,500 feet of open hole below the 7-inch casing shoe from which to produce. This well has proved the presence of the microfracture swarm.”
