Petrolifera counts on Puesto Morales



By Upstream staff 

Calgary-based Petrolifera Petroleum's hopes are high after tests indicated that the Puesto Morales RN PM a-1016 well in Argentina is an "indicated multi-zone crude oil discovery".

The well will be cased and then tested again, before being completed in the near future, utilising the completion rig already on site, the company said in a statement.

This is the 15th successive well Petrolifera has cased for completion since it began an evaluation drilling programme at Puesto Morales in late 2005.

The drilling rig now will be moved to the 1021 location, south-east of the company's 1003 discovery in the northern sector of the Puesto Morales Block, which is part of Petrolifera's concession in the Neuquen basin.
