Brookside Energy kicks off multi-well drilling program in Anadarko Basin

Brookside Energy Ltd (ASX:BRK, OTC:RDFEF) has initiated the ambitious Flames-Maroons Development Plan (FMDP) at the southern SCOOP Play's core in the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma with the first well spudded.

Drilling of the surface hole has commenced at the Iginia Well, the first of four wells according to its comprehensive development strategy for the project.

Rig mobilised

The company has successfully mobilised Kenai Rig 19, completing setup and safety tests ahead of the planned schedule.

Following the completion of this phase and the cementing of the casing in place, the drilling apparatus will be transferred to the Maroons Well and subsequently to the Fleury Well, to replicate the drilling process.

Managing director David Prentice said: “I am thrilled to bring news of the successful, safe and efficient setup of the Kenai 19 rig and the commencement of operations at the FMDP.

Transformational multi-well project

“It is fantastic to be working with the Kenai Drilling team again, as well as many of our highly valued contractors and consultants, on this exciting multi-well project that will be transformational for our company.

"We have been diligently working towards this positive development for some time, with extensive efforts behind the scenes to facilitate the start of drilling operations. It has been a monumental team effort, and I extend my gratitude to everyone for their hard work.

"With drilling now underway, we have a clear focus to work safely and efficiently to unlock the significant value in the FMDP, and we look forward to sharing regular updates from our operations at the appropriate time."
