Lundin spuds Luno II

Lundin Norway commenced drilling of exploration well 16/4-9 S on the Luno II North prospect in the North Sea. 

The main objective of well 16/4-9 S is to test the hydrocarbon potential and reservoir properties in the Luno II North prospect. The reservoir is expected to be of Jurassic/Triassic age. Lundin estimates the Luno II North prospect to contain gross unrisked prospective resources of 24 MMboe. This prospect is adjacent to the Luno II discovery which has an estimated contingent resource range of 27-71 MMboe.

The Luno II discovery is located approximately 15km south of the Edvard Grieg field in the North Sea sector of the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The well is located in PL359 and will explore the Luno II North segment, located directly northwest of the Luno II discovery. 

The planned total depth is approximately 2490m below mean sea level and the well will be drilled with the semisubmersible drilling unit Bredford Dolphin. The drilling operation is expected to take approximately 50 days.

Lundin Norway is the operator of PL359 with 50% working interest. The partners are OMV (Norge) with 20%, Wintershall Norge with 15% and Statoil Petroleum with 15% working interest.
