Aurelian Oil & Gas discovers gas with Viscani-1 well

Tuesday, August 05, 2008

Aurelian Oil and Gas has announced that the Vicsani-1 well in the Brodina Concession, Romania, has established the presence of a 12.5 meter gas column and is being completed as a gas production well

The well will be tied into the Bilca facilities with production expected to start in November 2008 at a rate of 1.5 million scf/d (50 kNm3/d)

Vicsani-1 was the second of Aurelian's four-well drilling programme. The third, Lilieci-1, is expected to spud during the week of 18th August. This is a deeper Sarmatian test well with a planned total depth of 2,890m and is located in the northeast of the Bacau concession, with the Roman-Secueni gas field, which has produced over 850 Bscf from the same reservoir, just 7 km to the north across the block boundary. The well is expected to take 85 days to drill and test.

Michael Seymour, Aurelian’s Managing Director, commented:

“Our Romanian drilling campaign this year of four wells back-to-back has got off to the perfect start with the first two establishing commercial gas and expected to be on production during the fourth quarter of this year. With compression currently being installed to boost the production from the first three fields, which have already been in production for two years, we can expect that, by the end of the year, production rates will be substantially higher than a year ago.

The next six months will be an exciting time for Aurelian when we will be drilling the third and fourth wells of our campaign, Lilieci-1 and Voitinel-1 respectively, which represent much larger prospects.”
