Well history
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
General
Well 6507/5-10 S was drilled to test the Slagugle prospect on the Revfallet Fault Complex in the Norwegian Sea. The primary objective was to test the hydrocarbon potential in the Early Jurassic Åre Formation and the underlying Triassic Grey Beds.
Operations and results
Wildcat well 6507/5-10 S was spudded with the semi-submersible installation Leiv Eiriksson on 13 November 2020 and drilled to TD at 2214 m (2204.6 m TVD) m in the Triassic Red Beds. Operations proceeded without significant problems. The well was drilled with seawater and hi-vis pills down to 1210 m and with BaraHib Gold water-based mud from 1210 m to TD.
The well encountered top Åre Formation at 1796 m (1789.3 m TVD) directly underlying the Paleocene Tang Formation. Top of Grey Beds was encountered at 1903 m (1895.1 m TVD). An oil-bearing interval of 255 m with 89 m net pay was found in the Åre Formation and the Grey Beds. Several oil-down-to (ODT) and pressure zones were identified in this interval with basal water-up-to identified at 2064.7 m (2055.6 m TVD). Oil shows were seen on SWC's and cuttings down to 2149 m (2139.4 m TVD). Above the reservoir shows were recorded up to 1759 m in the Tare and Tang formations.
Four cores were acquired over the Åre Fm and Grey Beds: core 1 from 1814.4 t0 1823.6, cores 2 and three in succession from 1855 to 1866.5 m, and core 4 from 2009.7 to 2024.1 m. MDT fluid samples were taken at 1813.5 m (oil), 1859 m (oil), 1908.1 m (oil), 1947.61 m (oil), 1955.2 m (water), 2012.41 m (oil), 2049.7 m and 2077.7 m (water).
Three sets of permanent pressure gauges were installed during P&A across the following intervals: 1810 - 1820 m

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.
