Meanwhile, MOL Norge AS, operator of production licence 860, is in the process of concluding the drilling of wildcat well 2/6-6 S.
The well has been drilled about 45 km east of the Valhall and Ekofisk fields and 20 km north of the Norwegian-Danish border in the Mandal High area. Extensive data acquisition and sampling have been carried out. The well is dry.
The well will now be permanently plugged and abandoned. Well 2/6-6 S was drilled by the Rowan Viking.
