Dry well on Ronaldo
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stavanger, 13 April 2011: Drilling of the exploration well 6507/8-8 on the
Ronaldo prospect in license PL434 in the Norwegian Sea has been completed.
The well was drilled about seven kilometres southeast of the Heidrun field. The
purpose of the well was to prove petroleum in Lower Jurassic reservoir rocks
(the Tilje and Åre formations). Reservoir rocks of expected thickness and of
good quality were encountered in the Tilje and Åre formations. Data acquisition
and sampling were carried out. The well is dry.
The well was drilled by the drilling facility Songa Delta to a vertical depth of
2,525 metres below sea level, and was terminated in the Åre formation in Lower
Jurassic. The water depth is 329 metres. The well has now been permanently
plugged and abandoned.
The partners in license PL434 are Nexen Exploration (operator, 49 percent),
Concedo (21 percent), Noreco (20 percent) and E.ON Ruhrgas (10 percent).
