Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. recently completed the Megiddo Jezreel #2 (MJ02) conductor pipe to a depth of 33.5 metres (110 feet) at its Israeli operations. Cellar construction and additional engineering work continue on the pad site in preparation of the rig arrival and spud. Zion will use the same pad site as the MJ#1 well, saving valuable time and significant expense.

The company advises that once Israeli visas have been issued for its rig crew, Zion’s rig will be shipped by sea to Israel. Earlier this week, the wellhead shipped from the Port of Houston. It is expected to arrive in Israel on October 5, 2020.

Zion’s rig crew in Romania is currently preparing safety certification on IADC-required lifting components in addition to general packing and crating preparations for the move.

Third-party service providers have also been selected for logging, directional drilling, mud services, tool rentals, and other related services. This will allow vendors to begin their importation and logistical procedures.

“We are thrilled to continue our pre-spud operations in Israel despite delays due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic,” Zion CEO, Rob Dunn, expressed.

“We see completion of the setting of the conductor pipe as a key step for our future spud of the MJ02 well.”
