The Canadian energy company operating in T&T, Touchstone Exploration, in an operational update, said the Cascadura-3ST1 well has been cased and production testing is scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2024, directly into the Cascadura natural gas facility.
In a news release recently, Touchstone Exploration said the Cascadura-3ST1 delineation well was spud on March 4 from its Cascadura C surface location and reached a total depth of 8,252 feet on March 29.
The energy company indicated that while drilling the well, a high-pressure gas kick was encountered at a depth of approximately 7,500 feet which resulted in wellbore instability issues, and as a result, a portion of the wellbore was redrilled via a sidetrack.
Touchstone Exploration Inc (LON:TXP) is a Canadian-based, international upstream oil and gas company currently active in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Primera Oil and Gas is the Trinidadian subsidiary of Touchstone.
