Maryborough Basin - Queensland
The Burrum-1 well, the first of two coal seam gas exploration wells, spudded in ATP 613P in the Maryborough Basin of southeast Queensland on 28 February. The wells are designed to evaluate the coal seam potential of the previously unexplored Burrum Coal Measures in the northern portion of the Burrum Syncline. Burrum-1 was drilled to a total depth of 438 metres.
Several coal seams were intersected and sampled for desorption analysis.
Eureka Petroleum, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy Investments Limited, is funding 100% of a two-staged coal seam gas exploration program, in return for which it will be assigned a 90% working interest in the Burrum Syncline farmin area. Stage 1 comprises the current two-well program. Magellan has the right to back-in to retain up to a 50% participating interest in any development by matching Eureka’s prior expenditures.
