    I don't think an estimated drill cost has been published for La Bella.

    As things stand right now there is a 2 well commitment to satisfy the license requirements.

    Currently WHL is the operator of Vic P/67. If the final 3D interpretation is good and AWE elects to proceed to drill, it will become operator and will have to cover 60% of the drill costs. This election must be made by mid 2014 i.e. quite soon.

    Tap oil also has an option to take 10% equity in the field. It can increase this percentage to 15% if it elects to cover 20% of the drill costs.

    So, in summary, assuming AWE proceeds to drill and Tap exercise it's options the drill costs breakdown as:

    Equity Drill Costs
    AWE 60% 60%
    Tap 10-15% 10-20%
    WHL 25-30% 20-30%

    WHL has also indicated that it might be willing to sell down a further equity stake so good finals 3D date might see another partner get involved in sharing the costs.

    Not a direct answer to your question, but I hope that helps.
