Results of real-time hydrocarbon chromatograph measurements and Schlumberger petrophysical wire line analysis justified collection of downhole fluid samples.
These samples, together with sidewall cores taken, will be sent to Core Lab for analysis.
The Jasper Explorer rig used in the drilling of the Sabu-1 well will be released following demobilisation.
Hyperdynamics will incorporate the results of the well, along with the interpretation of the newly acquired 3D seismic, in order to plan the subsequent drilling programme in consultation with Dana Petroleum and the government of Guinea.
