Buru Energy Limited says that since the last progress report, the well has been cored ahead in 3.99 inch (101 millimeter) hole to the current depth at 06:00 hours today of 7,759 feet (2,365 meters).

The top of the Ungani Dolomite was encountered at 7,682 feet (2,341.4 meters) and cores recovered from this point to the current drill depth have displayed well developed vugular porosity with strong mud gas shows and oil bleeding from cores.

The forward plan is to core ahead through the Ungani Dolomite reservoir section.
