"Why wasn't a production test run 2008?."


Simple...Because Blackwood-1 well was never designed to run a production test!


Take a look at the Production Objectives in the following document and you will see why Ekey.

Production Objectives:

In a success case, the full Plover Formation will be
drilled to the interpreted structural spill point to confirm
a gas-water-contact. While no production tests are
planned for the Plover Formation, a full log suite will be
acquired including image logs, rotary side-wall core
samples obtained, and hydrocarbon samples and pore
pressure data will be recovered by Modular Dynamics
Testing (MDT) testing.
