FX Energy, Inc. reported a successful drill stem test (DST) of the company’s Mieczewo-1K well.
Located in Fences concession in central Poland, this exploratory well flowed gas with no water in this first DST.
Andy Pierce, Vice President of Operations , remarked, “We are encouraged with this initial DST, but keep in mind we’ve only drilled a few meters into the pay zone so far. We have more drilling, coring and testing to do before we can say for sure whether this is a producible gas deposit. But so far everything looks just like we expected.”
At the time of the DST the Mieczewo-1K well had drilled a total of 9.6 meters of porous Rotliegend sandstone. The well will be drilled and cored another 50-60 meters, then logged and tested to determine the full extent of the pay zone and other reservoir parameters.
The Polish Oil and Gas Company is the operator and owns 51%; FX Energy owns 49% of the working interest.
