The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced it is seeking public opinion on whether or not to expand so-called “protected” areas in Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve (NPR-A). If enacted, the measure would expand on the Biden administration’s recent ban on new oil and gas drilling projects in the region. SourceContinue Reading
Repeated delays to well plugging and abandonment (P&A) work, competition for rigs from overseas and cost pressures are pushing up the estimated bill for decommissioning on the UK Continental Shelf, according to the North Sea Transition Authority’s new report. SourceContinue Reading
The LK7-1-1 exploration well was drilled and completed at a depth of approximately 4,400 m, which encountered a total of 76 m oil and gas pay zones. The well was tested to produce about 210 cubic meters of crude oil and nearly 1 MMcmgd, a new record for natural gas tested productivity in Bohai Bay....Continue Reading
