Senex
said
high
gas
readings
were
observed
in
the
unconventional
well
throughout
the
Permian
section
during
drilling.
Mud
logs
confirmed
the
presence
of
condensate,
with
fluorescence
in
the
Epsilon
formation
demonstrating
the
presence
of
liquid
hydrocarbons.
The
company
said
it
collected
320
metres
of
core
during
drilling
across
the
Roseneath,
Epsilon,
Murteree
and
Patchawarra
formations.
It
added
the
shale
and
coal
cores
were
undergoing
desorption
while
the
remaining
cores
were
being
analysed
to
determine
formation
permeability
and
porosity.
The
well
is
now
being
cased,
with
the
company
planning
to
carry
out
hydraulic
fracture
stimulation
later…
