Alameda-1 Drilling UpdateHighlights- Oil continued to flow into the well bore in the Marti structure, interrupting plans toconduct short form tests in this highly pressured oil interval- Marti structure clearly has moveable oil in a highly energised environment and thereforewarrants a longer and more comprehensive testing program than can be delivered by theshort form test contemplated by the side track approach- Forward work plan is to isolate the Marti structure then conduct tests in the (immediatelyhigher) Alameda structure. The drilling rig will then relocate and commence drillingZapato-1, the second well in this exploration program- Planning for a more thorough test of the Marti structure will proceed with existingpreparations for a possible appraisal well into the Amistad (shallowest) structure atAlameda-1 following the completion of Zapato-1
