Central Petroleum Limited (CTP.AX) Palm Valley 15 Spuds
PV15 is scheduled to take approximately 51 days to reach a total depth of 3,114m below the rotary table (approximately 2,031 metres true vertical depth). PV15 is a deviated well and will be drilled at an angle of approximately 78 degrees through the Pacoota Formation reservoir targeting the south flank of the Palm Valley gas field.
The two wells are aiming to restore Palm Valley plant sales capacity to approximately 14 TJ/d (100% JV) and deliver at least 10 PJ of gas (100% JV) over their operating lives. The investment is underpinned by the new Northern Territory Government Gas Supply Agreement announced by Central in April.
