Leyshon Resources Limited says that its wholly owned subsidiary Pacific Asia Petroleum Limited (PAPL) has completed the drilling and wire line logging of ZJS5 well.

The well was drilled without safety incident by Great Wall drilling Company to total a depth of 2,155 meters, then wire line logged and side wall core samples taken by contractor China Oilfield Services Limited.

The analysis of the logs and samples is ongoing however initial results have indicated that about 56.4 metres pay intervals have been encountered. In particular, around 30.8 metres of the 56.4 metres have exhibited relative high porosity measurements which indicate that these zones could have the potential to flow gas at commercial rates.

Following the open hole logging program, a production casing string has been installed which will allow multiple opportunities to conduct flow tests on the potential pay zones. Management expects to conclude testing the first of the potential pay zones by the end of the year.
