Falcone won't fly

WOODSIDE Energy Ltd reports that the Falcone-1A exploration well in Western Australia’s Exmouth Sub-basin will be plugged and abandoned after finding a non-commercial gross hydrocarbon column of about 35 metres.

Located in WA-271-P, Falcone-1A reached a total depth of 3,822 metres. Water depth at the location is 1,395 metres

The well is about 60 kilometres west southwest of the Enfield oil field. Upon completion of the Falcone-1A well the ‘Jack Bates’ semi-submersible rig will move to the Enfield oil field to begin development drilling operations.

Joint venture participants in WA-271-P are Woodside Energy Ltd (60% and operator) and Mitsui E&P Australia Pty Ltd (40%).
