The Rincon campaign was designed to test the southern extent of the field with Rincon-2, and the central part of the field between Rincon-1 and Rincon North-1 with Rincon-3.
The results of the two wells are: Rincon-2 was plugged and abandoned with oil shows in the McKinlay Member and Namur Sandstone after drilling to a total depth of 1,712 metres MDRT. Rincon-2 was drilled approximately 770 metres south-east of Rincon-1.
Rincon-3 was cased and suspended as a future oil producer after being drilled to a total depth of 1,735 metres MDRT. Rincon-3 encountered 1.2 metre net oil column across the McKinlay Member and Namur Sandstone reservoirs. Rincon-3 confirms connection of the Rincon field between Rincon-1 and Rincon North-1. Rincon-3 is located approximately 820 metres north-west of Rincon-1 and 900 metres southsouthwest of Rincon North-1
This concludes the 13 well appraisal program conducted by the PEL 92 joint venture over the Parsons, Callawonga, Butlers and Rincon fields.
Full field reviews to integrate the results of the appraisal campaigns will be conducted prior to consideration of future development drilling.
