US: Sacgasco spuds play-opening Borba 1-7 natural gas well in California
22 Feb 2021
Borba 1-7 well drilled out of 20” Surface-Conductor late Monday 22 February 2021.
Currently drilling ahead in 17 ½” hole below a Measured Depth of 262 feet (80 metres).
First stage is to drill to around 1,800 feet and set 13 3/8” casing.
Borba 1-7 well will be drilled to test multiple stacked 3D seismic anomalies in the interval from 3,200 feet (975 metres) to 9,500 feet (2,800 metres).
Sacgasco has announced that Graham Drilling Rig 5 spudded the
Borba 1-7 Natural Gas Well in the Northern Sacramento Basin onshore California on Monday. The rig is now drilling ahead in 17 ½” hole to a planned depth of some 1,800 feet where 13 3/8” casing will be set to seal off and protect freshwater aquifers. Current Measured Depth is 262 feet.

He also said that he would initiate strict action against officials of the Mines and Geology Department if they were found to be backing illegal activities. Mines and Geology Minister Murugesh Nirani on Tuesday announced that the government would amend the legislation concerned to ensure that only those who have permission from it use explosives in both quarrying and mining areas.
The Minister told reporters in New Delhi that accidents related to explosives were occurring mainly because of their illegal usage. Hence, the government would make it mandatory to obtain licence to use explosives, he said. The government has also decided to set up a school of mining to provide training to workers on the use of explosives. The last two accidents related to explosives at quar
Romania: Serinus Energy s Moftinu - 1008 well flows 4.0 MMscf/d on test
23 Feb 2021
Serinus Energy has announced the flow-test results of the
Moftinu–1008 well in Romania. The well flowed 4.0 million standard cubic feet per day ( MMscf/d ) (approx. 667 boe/d) on test. As previously announced, the Moftinu–1008 well was drilled to 1,000 metres.
The well has four gas-bearing sands that appeared on logs: A1, A2, A3, and B1. All four zones were perforated and completed. Out of these four zones, the Company decided to commence testing the A2 and A3 sands separately and comingled.
The well testing procedure and results are as follows:
US: Oil Search plans selldown as Pikka Project enters FEED
23 Feb 2021
FEED entry for Phase 1 of the Pikka project on Alaska s North Slope. Phase 1 will include a single drill site and a production facility with 80,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) capacity. This is an exciting and critical step toward delivering production and revenue from Oil Search’s Alaska assets.
Phase 1 FEED scope focused on delivering 80,000 bopd starting in 2025
Front-end engineering and design (FEED) will consist of finalising the design scope, execution plan, budget and schedule, and will reduce project risk, ensuring the design supports optimal expansion to deliver full value from the giant Nanushuk reservoirs. Specifically, FEED will progress engineering and design for the production facility, infrastructure for a single initial drillsite (Nanushuk Drill Site B, or NDB), pipelines, and operations pad infrastructure including camps. FEED will also deliver key drilling milestones including final desig
