Spitfire-7 oil appraisal well (PPL 258: Senex 60% and operator, Beach Energy 40%
(ASX:BPT))
Spitfire-7 is an appraisal well evaluating the extent of the Birkhead reservoir at the Spitfire oil field. The well reached a total depth of 1,827 metres on 3 September and the result was on prognosis, confirming the western extension of the field with 6.6 metres of net pay in the mid-Birkhead. The joint venture has cased and suspended Spitfire-7 and expects to bring the well online in November 2015.
Senex is continuing to evaluate new leads and prospects located in the western flank region, with the results of the wells drilled to date in FY16, Spitfire-7 and Fulcrum-1, assisting with the ongoing regional model analysis. Further drilling will be undertaken in line with Senex’s continued disciplined approach to capital allocation.
