Oil independents Pertra, Dana, Revus and Bridge have an oil discovery in the North Sea off Norway, where the jack-up platform Maersk Giant operated in 90 metres of water.
Operator Pertra’s hired help has proven oil in a 36-metre Paleocene sandstone interval with wildcat well 15/12-18 S between the Sleipner Oest and Varg fields. The layer was part of the Ty formation 2,550m down.
Sampling could lead to a sidetrack to determine reservoir girth out from the original well.
It was the first exploration well drilled in production licence 337 from the Awards in Predefined Areas 2004.
