MELBOURNE, Australia -- The Libra-1 exploration well in permit AC/P41 in the Browse basin, offshore Western Australia, has reached 1,131 m (3,711 ft) TVDSS in a 17½-in. (44½-cm) hole, according to Nexus Energy.
The semisubmersibleOcean Epoch is drilling the exploration well which is operated by Shell Development (Australia) on behalf of the joint venture.
The Libra-1 well is expected to intersect the target reservoir in late November, and is testing near field exploration potential around the greater Crux area, the company says.
