Inpex's Spari-1 well in Block 31 offshore Suriname is being plugged and abandoned after no significant hydrocarbon shows were found, according to partner Tullow Oil. 

The well, drilled to 3830m total depth in 52m water depth, found presence of the targeted Campanian turbidite sands. 

Tullow also had a stake in E.ON's Salander well, offshore Norway, which is also being plugged and abandoned after being classified as a dry hole.
