The Client
Comet Ridge is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange with the ASX Code: COI and is based in Brisbane. The Company’s flagship gas project comprises the Mahalo Gas Hub assets located in central Queensland, 240 kilometres to the major gas demand centre of Gladstone.
The Project
We were selected by Comet Ridge to construct, Struan 2, the vertical intercept well that will be connected to the next dual lateral well scheduled for drilling.
Our Services
The Struan 2 vertical intercept well was successfully drilled to a total depth of 510 metres. The rig was then moved approximately 450 metres to the west onto a new well pad, and the Struan 3 dual lateral well spudded.
The Outcome
The Struan 3 well was drilling ahead in the deviated hole at 537 metres at an inclination of 85.7 degrees. This 8-1/2” hole will be drilled to the top of the Castor coal seam to approximately 570m where 7″ production casing will be installed and cemented. A 6-1/8″ hole will be directionally drilled from that casing point, into the Pollux seam, intersecting the previously drilled Struan 2 vertical well and then continuing on within the seam. The Castor seam will then be drilled. All three of the vertical wells drilled in this current programme, will be completed with tubing and pumps (with the smaller completions rig) and then put online for production testing to gain longer term flow data.
