The well was drilled to a total depth of 9,235ft, with electric logs run over the targeted intervals, and has identified eight pay intervals ranging from 5,220ft to 9,176ft.
The firm identified over 130ft of conventional oil sand along with 1,600ft of rich oil shales interspersed among the sands for testing and fracture stimulation.
