The Yeti discovery was made in Walker Ridge (WR) block 160, which is located approximately 15 kilometres (9 miles) south of the Big Foot field, and 11 kilometres (7 miles) from the Cascade field. Yeti was drilled with the Maersk Developer drilling rig, a sixth generation semi-submersible. Statoil’s drilling efficiency with Yeti was among the best of any well drilled in Walker Ridge, achieving a rate of approximately 123 metres (400 feet) per day. The rig has now moved on and is currently drilling Statoil’s Thorvald prospect in the Mississippi Canyon block 814. Statoil is the operator with 50% of Yeti, and its partners are Anadarko who has 37.5% and Samson with the remaining 12.5%.
