Well history

WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE

General

Well 6608/11-9 (Godalen) is located on the Sør High part of the Nordland Ridge in the Mid-Norway parts. The well was designed as a vertical exploration well to investigate the distribution and hydrocarbon bearing potential of the Rogn Formation in the Godalen prospect. In addition, investigate the properties of the Intra Melke Formation sandstones.

Operations and results

Well 6608/11-9 was drilled with the semi-submersible drilling rig Transocean Artic on 13 July 2019 and drilled vertically to TD of 1700 m (1699.9 m TVD) in the Middle Jurassic Not Formation. The well was drilled down to 1103 m with seawater and sweeps and from 1103 m to TD with KCl/Glycol water-based mud.
