Cooper riches: Beach has flowed shale gas on acreage in the Cooper basin
Beach carried out a five-stage fracture stimulation programme over a 250 metre section in the Roseneath shale, Epsilon formation and Murteree shale (REM), recording a peak gas flow of 1.3 MMcfd.
The test followed a single stage frac of the Patchwarra formation the company carried out in April which delivered a flow rate of up to 750,000 cubic feet per day.
