Comet Ridge extends Galilee Basin coal seam gas play

Comet Ridge (ASX: COI) is drilling three coal seam gas wells to appraise the extent and characteristics of the coals in a new extension of the Gunn Project Area in Queensland.

The first well, a pre-pilot production well, will be drilled in the company’s wholly owned ATP 744P  while two core holes will be acquired in the Lake Galilee Area, which it is acquiring up to 75% from Queensland Energy Resources.

Two of these wells will provide valuable information across the Gunn Project Area while the third and most easterly well will test a different play concept.

All permitting and approvals are progressing to schedule and the first well is expected spud in September this year.
