The ‘Stena Tay’ drilling rig has sidetracked the Tevét-2 borehole from 3,048 metres. An 8-1/2” hole section was drilled to the 7” casing point at 3,667 metres. At midnight on the 17 October preparations had begun to drill the 6-1/2” hole through the Cretaceous section, inclusive of the lithology at 3,741 metres at which the original
borehole took a kick. The planned total depth (TD) of 3,965 metres remain unchanged.
The Tevét-2 well is located 2.5 kilometres to the South of the Miocene discovery well Tevét-1,
and lies in a water depth of 466 metres.
