42/13a-3 (Crosgan)


Located just to the West of the Dogger High and East of the Greater Breagh Area the well was designed to appraise the gas bearing stacked channel fill sands within the Whitby Sandstone Member of the Lower Carboniferous, Visean, Yoredale Formation. The well was successfully drilled and logged with LWD in 2014 using the Ensco 70 jack-up drilling rig.


43/18a-2Y (Severn)


The Severn prospect well was designed to target both the Carboniferous, Westphalian 'A" Crawshaw Sand and the Carboniferous, Namurian 'B' Marsdenian Trent Sand. The well was successfully drilled, cored and logged with LWD tools in 2013 using the Ensco 92 jack-up drilling rig.


48/19a-C2, 48/19a-C3 (Clipper South)


The Clipper South phase one development wells were designed to target and drill horizontally through the Lower Permian, Rotliegend, Leman Sandstone Formation. The wells were successfully drilled and logged with LWD tools in 2012 using the Ensco 92 jack-up drilling rig.


42/13a-A3, A4, A5, A5Z, A6, A7, A8 (Breagh Alpha)

Phase one of the Breagh Alpha project was successfully drilled, cored and logged with LWD tools between 2012 and 2014 using the Ensco 70 jack-up drilling rig.


42/13a-6 (East Breagh)


The East Breagh well was designed and planned to appraise the fluvial distributary channels and associated fluvio-deltaic facies reservoir sands within the Dinantian Middle Limestone sequence of the Carboniferous Yoredale Group. It was successfully drilled and logged with wireline in 2011 using the Ensco 72 jack-up drilling rig.


43/19a-C2Y (Cavendish)


The Cavendish sidetrack well was designed to encounter the Carboniferous, Upper Westphalian 'A' sand reservoir and drill a sub-horizontal production gas well maximising wellbore exposure to the reservoir formation. The well was drilled, cored and logged with LWD tools in 2011 using the Ensco 72 jack-up drilling rig.


42/14-2 (Macanta)


The Macanta well, located between the Breagh and Crosgan fields was designed to drill to the Carboniferous, Visean, Scremerston Formation in order to fulfil the licence agreement. The well was successfully drilled and logged with LWD tools in 2010 using the Ensco 72 jack-up drilling rig.


42/19a-1 (Airidh)


The Airidh prospect well was designed to explore the Early Triassic, Bacton Group, Bunter Sandstone Formation in a simple four way dip closure over a Zechstein salt swell in the Cleveland Basin. The well was successfully drilled and logged with LWD tools in 2010 using the Ensco 72 jack-up drilling rig.


49/02a-6 (Topaz)


The Topaz appraisal well was designed to drill a horizontal well through the Lower Permian, Rotliegend, Leman and Carboniferous, Westphalian "C' Lower Ketch gas bearing sands. The well was drilled and logged with LWD tools in 2008 using the Noble Al White jack-up drilling rig.


42/27a-3 (Tees)


The Tees exploration well was designed to drill and evaluate the Lower Permian, Leman Sandstone reservoir and penetrate the underlying Carboniferous to complete the commitments held under the terms of the license agreement. The well was drilled and logged with LWD tools in 2007 using the Noble Al White jack-up drilling rig.
