FAR provides update on Senegal drilling, rig moved to SNE-1 location

Published May 8, 2014

The Transocean Cajun Express Semi-Submersible rig has been moved from the FAN-1 well location to the SNE-1 well location whilst ongoing maintenance is being completed.

The FAN-1 well has been drilled to 1,200 metres below the seabed where 20" casing was cemented completing the 'top hole' portion of the well. The rig has then moblised to the SNE-1 location to most efficiently utilise the rig by drilling the 'top hole' portion of this second well.

After 20" casing is cemented on the SNE-1 well, the rig will return to the FAN-1 well location in five to seven days, and drill to the total planned depth.
