Indonesia ? West Kampar PSC - Pendalian-3
The 81/2? hole at Pendalian-3 has been drilled to the planned total depth (TD) of 748 metres and wireline logging has been completed. Wireline data confirm that reservoir quality is excellent. The well has been cased and a program comprising 4 firm and one optional cased-hole drill stem tests of the Sihapas Sandstone section has been initiated. The program is designed to test a series of sandstone units which are established producing reservoirs at these depths in nearby fields. Zones agreed for testing are:
| DST | Potential Oil Zone (Metres below KB) |
| #1 - Firm | 528 ? 541 |
| #2 - Contingent | 499 - 511 |
| #3 ? Firm | 460 ? 464 & 466 - 471 |
| #4 ? Firm | 279 - 292 |
| #5 - Firm | 241 - 252 |
The zones that will be tested by DST?s #3, #4 and #5 zones are analogous to zones that tested oil from Pendalian-1.
In contrast, the DST #1 and #2 intervals have not tested oil in earlier wells, although there is some evidence for an oil column from the logs in Pendalian-3.
