EnCore says Esmond drilling back underway
31 October 2008
EnCore Oil’s attempts to discover whether it is sitting on a massive gas storage facility in the North Sea are back on track after the rig conducting test drilling on the site restarted work
Drilling over the Esmond field hit problems early last week when a fire broke out on the Energy Enhancer drilling rig. The well operator Star Energy confirmed this morning that work was back underway.
The well was approximately 10 metres above the reservoir when drilling was halted.
