Galilee Energy's Zydeco-1 Well Hits Target with Strong Gas Shows
- Zydeco-1 intersected Homeseeker B sand on prognosis at 8,946 ft TVD
- Strong hydrocarbon presence indicated by continuous high-pressure gas readings
- Drilling continues to primary Tweedel Sand target as planned
- If logs confirm commercial reservoir, Galilee plans to proceed with completion
- Zydeco-1 targets up to 13.7 BCFG and 610,000 barrels of condensate
Galilee Energy Ltd has announced that its Zydeco-1 well in Acadia Parish, Louisiana, has intersected the Homeseeker B sand on prognosis at approximately 8,946 ft true vertical depth (TVD). The well encountered clean-sand development comparable to the MacCabees B-1 offset well, with continuous high-pressure gas readings indicating a strong hydrocarbon presence. These results further de-risk the project economics as the Homeseeker B sands were not accounted for in the Zydeco-1 financial model. Drilling is now continuing to the primary Tweedel Sand target as planned. If the logs confirm a commercial reservoir, Galilee expects to move into completion, surface facilities, and tie-in to the Texas Gas Pipeline. Zydeco-1 is testing a large conventional Gulf Coast gas-condensate target with unrisked prospective resources of up to 13.7 BCFG and 610,000 barrels of condensate.
Unrisked prospective gas resources of up to 13.7 BCFG and 610,000 barrels of condensate
Galilee plans to proceed with completion, surface facilities, and tie-in to the Texas Gas Pipeline if electric logs confirm hydrocarbon pay and commercial reservoir quality.
