RE:RE:RE:RE:addingCarinthian,
The well they are referring to in you post is Tag's 100% on the poorly explored East Coast, as are the "few blocks" going for auction. I can see how TAG would want to keep quiet on the first deep well on the East Coast, but EW isn't participating in those wells. I don't think Tag/EW are as concerned about well secrecy in the Taranaki Basin (on the West coast), including the Cheal targets in which EW is participating.
Does that make sense?
I figure it will take almost a month after drilling the first well to drill the second well and to test and complete both wells, after which Tag should let EW tells us what they found. If I read things correctly, these two wells are the two wells that EW must carry to earn 30% in the 54877 permit area, so it doesn't matter inwhat order they are drilled or completed. Both get drilled regardless of the test results for the first one.
Please let me know if I understad this incorrectly.
