Well history
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
General
Wildcat well 6507/7-13 was drilled on a horst structure at the flank of the Nordland Ridge, eight km north of the Heidrun Field installation. Hydrocarbons were proven in Åre Formation sandstones. Sidetrack 6507/7-13 A was drilled to obtain cores from the reservoir.
Operations and results
Appraisal well 6507/7-13 A was kicked off from 2148 m in well 6507/7-13 on 8 January 2001. It was drilled with the semi-submersible installation Maersk Jutlander to TD at 2522 m in Late Triassic sediments of the Åre Formation. The well was drilled with water based silicate/KCl mud from kick-off to TD.
The Åre Formation was encountered at 2390 m, 3 m TVD shallower than in 6507/7-13. Three cores were taken in the Åre Formation, from core point at 2416 m, below first coals to reduce chance jamming off. The three cores covered a total interval of 71 m.
The well was permanently abandoned on 21 January 2001 as an oil appraisal well.
Testing
No drill stem test was performed.

About this data
Norwegian Offshore Directorate (Sodir) FactPages, mirrored nightly and used under the Norwegian Licence for Open Government Data (NLOD). Depths are metres along the wellbore from the kelly bushing unless a row gives its own unit; older cores are filed in feet. A zero the Directorate files for an unmeasured pressure, density, or temperature is shown as a dash.
