Operations Update: Eblana #1
U.S. Oil & Gas plc (GXG: USOP), an oil and gas exploration company focused on Nevada, USA, is pleased to announce that petrophysical analysis and data integration of the downhole log, hydrocarbon shows and cutting samples from the Eblana #1 exploration well, drilled by its wholly owned subsidiary Major Oil International LLC, is complete.
After rigorous petrophysical analysis and reservoir studies by Baker Hughes and US Oil specialists, a plan has been finalised for the next stage of operations. Of the 20 potential payzones identified by the advanced well-log analysis, at least 11 zones will be perforated.
The Company is now planning production testing of the well using a workover rig in order to collect further reservoir production test data including flow rates, reservoir pressure and other information. The commencement date will be communicated in due course.
CEO Brian McDonnell said, ‘Rigorous analysis of the large amounts of data generated by our Eblana #1 discovery has greatly enhanced our understanding of well reservoir properties. We look forward with confidence to the next stage in our exploration process.’
