Project Profile
Value: Undisclosed
Location: Baltic Basin
Area: unknown
Reserves: unknown
Drilling Depth: 2,840 metres
Start-up year: -
This was the first well in the Baltic Basin specifically targeting shale gas. The well was drilled to a total depth of 3,085 metres and encountered organic-rich lower Silurian shales at a depth of approximately 2,840 metres. Core was taken using a wireline retrieval system over an interval of approximately 217 metres in the Lower Silurian and Upper Ordovician intervals and sent to laboratories for analysis.
A single-stage hydraulic fracture stimulation in the Ordovician horizon was carried out towards the end of 2010, and gas was produced and brought to surface. Testing was carried out and included some flaring. 3Legs Resources are drilling our third, horizontal well, Łebień LE-2H, on the same location as their first vertical test well and is expected to be drilled to a vertical depth of approximately 3,000 metres with a lateral section of approximately 1,000 metres. The well will then be completed and stimulated with a multi-stage fracture stimulation, and then flow tested. In 2014, 3Legs Resources has sold its last shale gas concessions in Poland to Sweden’s Stena Group.
