They r into the business of drilling now at B-10.

Basically after they've run the 9" casing joints,
- they'll pump cement into the annulus, wait on it to set,
- Perform pressure testing,
- Makeup 8.5" BHA with a new Drillbit & MWD tool,
- Drill out the cement float shoe etc & drill ahead towards the Elang target sands,
- Lithology should b claystone instead of the monotonous Calcarenite sequence.

The MWD tool will pick up any change in Resistivity when they hit any Oil in the RAB sands & the Gamma should drop thus indicating the top of Elang.

Once they drill thro' that section to TD, they'll run full suite of Wireline Logs etc & do the usual MDT pressure testing & sampling, calculate the Oil Water Contact, net-gross pay thickness, porosity, movable HC's etc etc.

Not long to go, hopefully no more Tropical storms. GLTA & safe drilling ahead.

Santos Qtrly is on the 20th of Jan, so we should get an indication of how they were going at Dancer-1, prior to releasing the Tom Prosser rig for drilling Pavo-1.
