RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Looks interesting...Thanks general, regarding Leprechaun.
I wanted to know when total depth for the well Nalcor is drilling at Parsons Pond is expected. I think it is tight hole status but indications may leak out in share price and volume movements of the partners.

Nalcor Energy Oil and Gas announced today it has started drilling operations on the first of three planned exploration wells in Parsons Pond in Western Newfoundland.
“The past few weeks have focused on getting the rig moved to the drill site in a safe manner and getting services organized for drilling operations,” said Jim Keating, vice-president, Nalcor Energy — Oil and Gas. “Drilling is now underway with the first well being spud last night.”
According to a news release, this is the first of a three-well exploration drilling program expected to provide access to new, valuable information which will enable Nalcor and its partners to further assess the petroleum potential in the area.
“We’re hopeful that improved prospectivity, resulting from increased exploration, will entice other proponents to come in to the area and help advance further exploration and development of the west coast basin,” explained Keating.
Nalcor Energy has an average of 67 per cent gross working interest in three onshore exploration permits on the Island’s west coast. In addition to Nalcor Energy Oil and Gas Inc., there are four other partners with varying holdings in the three permits: Leprechaun Resources Ltd.; Deer Lake Oil and Gas Inc.; Investcan Energy Corporation; and Vulcan Minerals Inc
