ReWhy drill further if oil had been found
ReWhy drill further if oil had been found"This is an exploration well only if we had found Oil we would not still be driling. Why pay $600,000 k per day if Oil is already discovered."
From what I understood, even if oil had already been encountered, they would continue drilling to find its total depth plus, if it is in layers, to see the concentrations at the driffernt layers. And even once they have reached the final depth, they might then do horizontal drilling to further delineate the field in that area.
