casing complete top to bottom, page-22

All,

I work in the industry. Cementing is a 6hr job depending on how they are going to do it. This job complicated because of the 7" liner below the 7" casing to surface. BOP test takes 6 hrs. Nippling up casing to BOP also takes about 5hrs. Nippling up and test done while cement is going off. Could easily be tripping in to start drilling tomorrow.

Public holidays mean nothing on rigs. Rigs work 24hrs a day, 7 days a week. They will be through reservoir on weekend. If they are not running LWD then extent of reservoir will not be evident until they TD, trip out and run wireline logs. Expect next announcement on Tue/Wed to say they have TD'd and are preparing to run wireline logs.

Cheers,
Mick.
