Drill stem test 3 was conducted over the High Cliff Sandstone between 2584.4 to 2627 metres. The test recovered formation water at a rate of about 100 barrels per day.
The High Cliff Sandstone was subsequently isolated with a cement plug and a liner set and cemented over the Irwin River Coal Measures.
Two zones in the Irwin River Coal Measures will be perforated between the intervals 2548-2553.5 metres and 2558-2567.5 metres. These zones, which were not previously tested by open-hole DST, will then be flow tested for further evaluation of the commercial significance of this new field gas discovery.
