Renergen intersects gas-bearing fracture system at Virginia project
The target gas-bearing fracture system has been intersected close to prognosis at natural gas producer Renergen’s R2D2 well between wells MDR5 and HR1, which are located at the Virginia gas plant, in the Free State.
Renergen said on June 18 that gas samples would be collected and sent to the laboratory for analysis, with compositional results expected in the coming days.
The forward programme is to run electric logs to ascertain the orientation of the faults and allow the team to plan on how to finish the well and maximise contact with the fracture.
“This is a great result and will go a long way in helping improve the accuracy with which we identify gas-bearing structures in the reserve area, while also showing the critically important feature that we may potentially be able to reduce our well spacing,” said CEO Stefano Marani.
