(Indonesia)- Drilling continues at the Jeruk-3 appraisal well in the Sampang PSC, offshore Indonesia, approximately 1.8 km west of Jeruk-1 and 40 km south east of Surabaya.
Flow testing of the well is under way over the open hole interval 4,939 m MD to 4,978 m MD (4,663 m TVDSS to 4,696 m TVDSS).
After cleaning up, the well flowed oil at a choked-back rate of approximately 3,200 b/d with a gas to oil ratio of 230 scf/bbl through a 6.5 mm choke. The flow rate was constrained by surface facility limitations.
Prior to testing, a nine meter core sample was retrieved from the lower section of the test interval. The forward program is to complete the current testing operations and then drill ahead to continue the evaluation of the reservoir interval.
