PERTH, Australia – The jackup Transocean GSF Monitor is scheduled arrive soon in Cote d’Ivoire to start work on block CI-202 for Rialto Energy.

Spudding of the Gazelle-P3 well should start before mid-March. This is the first of Rialto’s plannedthree-well program on the block, and should take around 60-70 days to drill and test.

The overall drilling campaign should last for six months, including testing.
