BNK Petroleum stated that it has drilled the well under-budget, and has been cased after completion of the drilling.

The entire lateral of the Chandler 8-6H well has been placed on target within the preferred sub-interval of the Caney formation.

The company claimed that as expected, it encountered strong oil and gas shows while drilling. The record is comparable to its best producing wells to date.

BNK Petroleum president and CEO Wolf Regener said: “I am very pleased that we were able to drill this well safely and under-budget, and that the oil and gas shows look so strong. This result is a testament to the excellent team that we have in place.
