Talisman Energy Norge AS, a wholly owned subsidiary of Talisman
Energy Inc. (TSX: TLM) (NYSE: TLM), has made a promising oil
discovery in the 15/12-21 exploration well drilled on the Grevling
Prospect in the North Sea. The Grevling well is located about 215
kilometres off the west coast of Norway in PL038, Block 15/12, on
the eastern flank of the Central Graben.
The well, which targeted Mesozoic sandstone reservoirs on a
structural high, was drilled to a total vertical depth of 3,268
metres, encountering a gross hydrocarbon bearing interval of
approximately 133 metres. Two zones were tested at a combined rate
of 1,250 bbls/d (197 m3/d). Currently a sidetrack well is being
drilled down-dip on the flank of the structure to assess its
volumetric upside potential. The discovery lies 16 kilometers north
of the Talisman operated Varg Field.
"Grevling is a promising exploration discovery, close to our
Varg facility," said Richard Herbert, Executive Vice-President,
Exploration. "This, along with the recent Barents acreage award in
the 20th Licencing Round, reinforces our long-term growth
aspirations in Norway."
Talisman has a 40% working interest in the Grevling discovery,
Det norske oljeselskap ASA has a 30% working interest and Petoro AS
holds the remaining 30%.
