Zenith Energy, a leading well engineering consultancy and project management company with offices in Aberdeen, Perth Australia, Dakar Senegal, and Abu Dhabi, announces the successful delivery of the Wolin East 1 (WE 1) well for client Central European Petroleum (CEP) offshore Poland.
Zenith Energy was contracted to provide full well management, including all well engineering, procurement, supply chain management, services contracting, health, safety and environmental management, logistical support, and supervision of the well operations for the first well to be drilled at CEP’s Wolin concession in the Baltic Sea.
The project, which included a complex rig move, extremely shallow water depth, and challenging drilling conditions was executed in 70 days. WE-1 was successfully drilled, cored, and logged before being suspended for future re-entry.
CEP have confirmed via press release that the data obtained during drilling is now undergoing detailed analysis, with initial results looking promising and that resource estimates will be updated based on the data gathered from WE 1, with results expected in the next 2-3 months.
Rolf G. Skaar, CEO of Central European Petroleum, stated, “Thanks to our extensive experience with similar wells across Europe, the entire WE 1 drilling operation was completed as planned. We will now undertake a thorough analysis of all the data obtained during drilling, which will take a few months.”
