Christies-2 underway

Christies-1 produces oil from the lower Birkhead Formation, which will be the primary target of the second well while the Hutton Sandstone will be cored and tested early next week.

Production from Christies-1 is being transported to market via truck to Moomba and then via pipeline to Port Bonython.

The Namur Sandstone, a secondary objective in this well, is expected to be intersected near the end of this week.

Participants in the Christies-2 well are Beach Petroleum Ltd (Operator) 75% and Cooper Energy NL 25%.
