North American oil and gas firm Dejour Energy has contracted Ensign Drilling Partnership to drill wells at its Woodrush complex.
The two wells will target the Halfway oil and Gething gas pools known to be productive at Woodrush at depths between 3500-4000.
The objectives of the project are to expand current field production and company reserve values.
Robert Hodgkinson, chairman and chief executive, said: “We anticipate that the expansion of the Woodrush Project, to include the Gething gas pool known to blanket the underlying Halfway, could become an important revenue driver beginning with this test.
“With our expanded acreage position there is room for multiple wells into this prolific hydrocarbon zone.”
Rig arrival is scheduled for Friday December 5 with completion expected at the end of this year.
