Senex continues CSG Exploration in Queensland's Surat Basin

At 6am today, the rig was at 65 metres after setting surface casing.

Senex Energy, as Operator of the Queensland ATP 593P joint venture, advises that drilling commenced on the Kato-2 coal seam gas exploration well on 4 March 2012. At 6am today, the rig was at 65 metres after setting surface casing.

Kato-2 will investigate the coal seam gas potential of the coals of the Walloon Coal Measures which are the target for many of the Queensland coal seam gas to LNG projects. The well is expected to reach a total depth of 285 metres and will include core analysis and extensive downhole logging and testing.

Kato-2 is the second well in a two well exploration drilling program in ATP 593P, and is an extension of the work already undertaken by the joint venture in the adjoining permit ATP 771P where almost 200 petajoules (PJ) of 3P (proved, probable and possible) reserves have been independently certified.
