The drilling program is designed to prove additional natural gas reserves in Petroleum Exploration Licence, 238 located near Narrabri, NSW with Bohena South-1C located 4kms south of the previously drilled Bohena pod of eight CBM wells and also six kilometres north of the previously drilled Bibblewindi-1 well.
Bohena South-1C is a core-hole designed to fully sample and analyse both the Late Permian
Black Jack Formation and the Early Permian Maules Creek Formation coal seams.
After integrating the technical data gathered from this well and assessing the results of the soon to be drilled Bohena-4L horizontal well, a decision will be made as whether to drill and place into production a new Bohena South vertical, fracture stimulated coal seam gas well or drill a new horizontal well from the Bohena South-1C location.
The 260sq.km Bohena Project Area contains up to 3,700 PJ (3.7 trillion cubic feet) gas in place within both the Late Permian Black Jack Formation and the Early Permian Maules Creek Formation coal seams.
The aim of this CBM drilling program is to complete a successful production pilot so as to prove up sufficient proved and probable (1P and 2P) gas reserves to enter into gas sales contracts.
The Gunnedah Gas Project is located in Petroleum Exploration Licence 238 between Narrabri and Gunnedah in New South Wales covering 9,100sq.km of the Gunnedah Basin.
