Anyone know which rig they used? Is it moving? If true, wonder if they will announce results?

They used the Stena DrillMax. It looks to have gone back to drilling development wells near the main Liza field. https://marad.gov.gy/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Notice-To-Mariners-132-of-2023.pdf

I could be wrong, but I use Ship Atlas and never seen the DrillMax leave Stabroek in light of the aforementioned MARAD notice. Stena Carron is on site at Haimara-2, but no ships have been on the coordinates I'm tracking for BlueFin.

As of Nov 3, it was still on the drill location with "restricted maneuverability". That means it has not left yet. What makes you think it has? The MURAD notice? If so, that is a general notice that should not be relied upon. Do you have anything else to support that the drill is done?

I've not been tracking, so maybe it hasn't moved and drilled the well. Just sharing what I thought from the maritime notices and news articles.

Okay. I think it is much too early for them to be done. Maybe by end of Nov if we are lucky. Hopefully they hit big and announce a few hundred feet of pay. This is like a free $200mil drill for us considering they are drilling our prospect from their side of the concession. Everyone should be excited about this hole.
