Phase two of the work programme is now underway:
Seismic interpretation has commenced that will estimate resource volumes and exploration well location.
In parallel the operator has commenced the preparation of the farm-out material.
Simon Gorringe, CEO of Andalas Energy and Power PLC said:
“We recently attended a project review meeting with Eagle’s technical team, which confirmed the work programme is on schedule and during which the operator presented the latest results of the PSDM work by PGS.
“The work to date continues to validate our opinion that the licence has excellent gas prospectivity and we now look forward to the completion of the work programme, which will include the operator assessment of the resource volumes and the recommendation for the location of the potential exploration well. We look forward to announcing the results of Eagle’s work with further updates on this and on our other projects over the summer.â€
