Lundin Petroleum through its wholly owned subsidiary Lundin Norway AS (Lundin Norway) is pleased to announce that drilling of exploration well 16/4-6S in PL359 has commenced. The well will target the Luno II prospect, which is located south of the Edvard Grieg field in the North Sea, offshore Norway.
The main objective of well 16/4-6S is to prove the presence of hydrocarbons in Jurassic reservoir sandstones. Lundin Petroleum estimates the Luno II prospect to contain unrisked, gross, prospective resources of 139 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe).
The planned total depth is 2,099 metres below mean sea level and the well will be drilled using the semi-submersible drilling rig Bredford Dolphin. Drilling is expected to take approximately 45 days.
