Warrego Energy were recently awarded Exploration Permit 25/07-8 EP, onshore Perth basin, which includes the West Erregulla gas discovery. Results from the existing West Erregulla-1 well suggest the field could be classified unconventional or 'Tight Gas'. Lucid have worked with Warrego to re-evaluate the opportunity and plan an appraisal programme geared towards reducing the reserves uncertainty sufficiently to enable the gas to be developed.
Tight gas reservoirs require some from of stimulation to unlock the reserves and enable production at economic rates. Lucid have applied their Petroleum Engineering and Stimulation experience on the project to understand what it will take to successfully develop West Erregulla.
Successful development of Western Australia's unconventional gas reserves will help to meet future energy demands in our booming State.
