Well history
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
General
Well 30/9-27 S was drilled on the Oseberg Fault Block in the North Sea. It was drilled as a sidetrack to the 30/9-O-2 H development well. The main objective was to prove commercial volumes in the southern part of the Middle Tarbert (MT) Formation Parkes prospect.
Operations and results
Appraisal well 30/9-27 kicked off from the 14" casing shoe at 2294 m in Development well 30/9-O-2 H on 20 August 2015. It was drilled with 8 1/2" BHA to TD in the Ness Formation at 3989 m and plugged back. No significant problem was encountered in the operations. The well bore was drilled with oil based mud.
The measured reservoir pressure in MT indicates that MT is depleted by 30 to 40 bar, and that the segment-bounding fault between southern and northern segments of the Parkes prospect therefore is not a complete barrier. The logs document the reservoir quality and filling level, giving OWC at 3242m TVD MSL.
No cores were cut. No fluid sample was taken.
The exploration well bore was plugged back and abandoned on 25 August 2015 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.
