Business Wire
Energy Partners, Ltd. ("EPL") (NYSE:EPL) today announced success on
the Redrock prospect, its first deepwater well in the Gulf of
Mexico. The well, Mississippi Canyon Block 204 #1, was drilled to a
total measured depth of 23,365 feet and encountered its intended
objectives. While the resource estimation is still ongoing, high
quality pay was encountered in one objective as expected. The
quality and extent of a second objective is still under evaluation,
and further appraisal work on this discovery will continue this
year and on into 2007. Noble Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NBL) is the
operator of Redrock with a 50% working interest. EPL and Samson
Offshore Company each have a 25 percent working interest. "We are
obviously excited about the success of our first deepwater well.
This is precisely the sort of jump start to our deepwater program
that we envisioned when we partnered with Noble and Samson earlier
this year. We are looking forward to our next well, Raton, which is
adjacent to Redrock, and will hopefully add to this early success,"
said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard A. Bachmann.
Founded in 1998, EPL is an independent oil and natural gas
exploration and production company based in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The Company's operations are focused along the U. S. Gulf Coast,
both onshore in south Louisiana and offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.
