"It's very unlikely they'd have paid for slimbore tooling hey?"
Dunno mate. There was a post from someone who had talked with SM and verified that slimhole tools had been mobilized. There was also a photo of a load of tools being loaded onto a plane in Germany. I have my doubts as to how certain this story might be.
"Another question off the back of that KG - they would get all the data they need / want to make accurate assessments of any 6" hole from running a basic suite of tools?"
A basic wireline run (super combo string) would give you the information needed to do a log interpretation (ie Vshale, porosity and Sw calculations) and youd usually be able to pick any contacts.
