Application for Production Licence (EP-115 Surprise Field)
and Seismic Update
Central Petroleum Ltd (ASX:CTP) (“Company”) advises that it has submitted an
application letter to the Northern Territory Department of Resources (NTDOR) for a
Production Licence (PL) around the Surprise 1REH ST1 discovery well. Given the
results of the Extended Production Test to date, the Company believes it has enough
data to justify the application for a PL.
3D seismic data acquisition over the Surprise structure in EP-115 and the 2D seismic
across the Pellinor play in EP-97 is 100% complete. The processing of the 3D is 50%
complete and the 2D has been initiated.
