The Hoover-2 development well started producing on 7 September and is producing around 3,000 bopd, while the North Pedirka-1 well came online on 14 September 2003 around 2,700 bopd.

With the completion of these latest production wells, liquids production for the JV is expected to be close to 28,000 bopd.

Harriet Joint Venture participants are Tap Oil 12.2229%, Apache Energy (operator) 68.5% and Kufpec Australia 19.2771%.
