Bow’s Bowen CSG program continues to deliver
BOW Energy says the first two wells on the Comet coal seam gas prospect in the BowenBasin have intersected the thickest coal seams to date.
The second well, CM-3, intersected 26m of coal with 11m in the Rangal Coal Measures and 15m in the Burngrove Coal Measures.
According to Bow, the seams intersected in the two wells represent the thickest target coals intersected to date in the Comet and nearby Blackwater fields.
The company has started drilling the third well, CM-2, which has intersected 5.4m of coal to date.
CM-2 is drilling ahead at 345m to a depth of 700m.
Meanwhile over at the Blackwater CSG field, Bow is on track to start a multi-well appraisal drilling program for 2P (proved and probable) reserves certification later this month.
The company said it had met with reserve certifiers MHA Petroleum Consultants in relation to the proposed program design and expected to
finalise a revised drilling program this week.
The drilling program will start at the shallow areas of the field where drill stem permeability tests have confirmed multiple permeable coal zones in two wells.
