Saltfleetby Sidetrack Drilling Progress Update

 

Angus Energy (AIM: ANGS) is pleased to announce that, despite relatively slow
progress in casing and cementing, it expects to resume drilling into the open
hole section of the reservoir in the early part of next week with well clean
up operations set to commence on or around 16(th) December shortly followed by
well testing.

Drilling itself is expected to end on or around 14 December with the setting
of the completion string (i.e. the production tubing).  On this timetable, if
there are no issues, the well can be declared a technical success by the
middle of the month, although testing will be required before flow rates can
be announced and a commercial success declared.

We have created an infographic video of the drilling process to assist in
comprehension which is available under the video tab in our website and on our
Twitter feed.

 

Qualified Person's Statement: Andrew Hollis, the Technical Director of the
Company, who has over 40 years of relevant experience in the oil and gas
industry, has approved the information contained in this announcement. Mr
Hollis is a Fellow of the Geological Society and member of the Society of
Petroleum Engineers.

END.
