Meanwhile, Mosman said that it has already begun site preparation for the Stanley-4 well. It expects to begin drilling next month.

The company also said that its strategic alliance partner Baja Oil and Gas will receive an interest in both acquisitions and become the operator of both leases, subject to final documentation.

In August, Mosman completed the drilling of Stanley-3 well after reaching the target depth of 5,100ft. At the time of drilling, the company identified several zones of interest that were in line with its expectations.

In September 2018, Mosman agreed to acquire two assets in East Texas, US, as part of a collaboration with Baja Oil and Gas.
