Both the Harrier and Merlin Prospect at Peregrine are targeting the shallow Nanushuk play at around 4,300ft and 3,400ft, respectively, and can potentially be drilled using a smaller drilling rig, something that XCD is assessing. The Harrier Deep Prospect would require a standard north slope drill rig to reach the Torok target (~10,000 ft) but would intersect both the shallow Nanushuk and the deeper Torok objectives in the same wellbore.
This shallow drilling rig option removes the summer permafrost thaw issues
