Spudded early last month, the Wilson B 14-12 horizontal gas well on the Ashland Prospect in Coal County is currently drilling ahead in the Woodford Shale at 6840 feet (2085m).
Mud and open hole logs indicate highly prospective intervals in the Wapanucka and Jefferson formations, according to Sundance, which holds a 3.125% interest in the well.
Back in Australia, the company said the Fairbridge-1 well would undergo testing in three zones of interest in the Upper, Lower Poolowanna and Birkhead Formations.
Drilled in January, the Fairbridge-1 well was cased and suspended for future production due to the non-availability of equipment and personnel. But at the time, operator Cooper Energy was uncertain if the well would produce commercial hydrocarbons.
Fairbridge-1 is about 4km west of the Keleary oil field and 80km north of Innaminka.
Interests in Fairbridge-1 are now: operator Cooper Energy, which holds a 38.33% stake, Sundance Energy (41.67%) and Enterprise Energy (10%), as well as US companies McElvain (5%) and Liberty Petroleum (5%).
