Jubilant says that KPL-3E-1, the fifth well of the six well Phase-III-Extension development drilling campaign in the oil producing Kharsang Field, was spudded on 23 June 2013.

KPL-3E-1, located in the southern part of the field, is being drilled as an infill development well between KSG#55 and KSG#53 with the S-00 reservoir sand layer as primary objective and Q-00 and T-00 sand layers as secondary objectives. The well is planned to be deviated by approximately 766 metres to the south-west from the existing plinth of the well KSG#34 and will be drilled to a target depth of approximately 1,666 metres Measured Depth ("MD") and 1,450 metres True Vertical Depth ("TVD").

The fourth development well of the current campaign, KSG#68 (previously referred to as KPL-3E-2), which was spudded on 17 May 2013, was successfully drilled to a revised target depth of 1,510 metres MD and 1,328 metres TVD on 13 June 2013.
