Mosman Oil and Gas chairman John Barr said: “Given the significant results at Stanley-1, we have determined to prioritise existing resources towards the projects that hold the most chance of further increasing production and cash flows, which includes the potential Stanley-2 well, and the Champion and Challenger projects.”
The company noted that 3D seismic will be used at the Challenger project to identify development well locations within the existing lease area.
