Real Energy has reported additional gas flows at the Tamarama 2 well at its ATP927 permit in the Cooper Basin, South West Queensland, Australia.

Based on an initial flow test, the company recorded a flow rate of 2mmcf/d with flowing tubing pressure of 1,783psi.

The company noted that the development moves it closer to the commerciality of the well.

Real Energy managing director Scott Brown said: “This is a good result for Tamarama 2, which we believe will be a future gas producer. Importantly, we are a step closer to commercialising a very large gas field and supports the drilling of future development wells.”

The firm will continue to gather data and other reservoir parameters on Tamarama 2 and 3 in an effort to book maiden gas reserves for its Windorah gas project. Real Energy expects to clock the initial flow rates for the Tamarama 3 well in the coming weeks.

“We are a step closer to commercialising a very large gas field and supports the drilling of future development wells.”

The second and third wells were drilled as follow-up wells from the initial discovery well of Tamarama 1.

Real Energy incorporated a changed deviated wellbore design with optimal stress orientation to achieve more efficient fracture stimulation.

Brown added: “We are now on track to convert our large Contingent Resources of 2C and 3C into reserves and then start to deliver sustainable production from what is potentially a very large gas project in the heart of a proven Australian energy province, the Cooper Basin.

“Whilst we are on the verge of commercialising a very large gas field, we are still at the very early stages of unlocking the project’s true value, which we anticipate is significant.”

The company aims to convert a large amount of an estimated 13.7 Tcf total mean gas in place into gas reserves to take advantage of the gas situation in the Australian East Coast.
