Empyrean Energy provides the following update on operations on the Sugarloaf project which is part of the Sugarkane Gas and Condensate Field:

Empyrean has been advised by the Operator, Texas Crude Energy Inc (TCEI), that a clean out assembly has washed past the drilling assembly that become stuck (fish) and continued to the well TD at 15,685ft. The production liner is presently being deployed and preparations will then be made to cement the liner in place.

During the fishing operations the well continued to exhibit indications of gas charge, with gas readings of over 2,000 units and flares of up to 40ft having been observed when circulating out the well following shut in periods.

The well is targeting the upper chalk interval that has produced gas and condensate in Block A and also the Kowalik-1H well.

Empyrean has a 6% interest in the Weston-1H well.
