The Clarence Moreton Basin is highly prospective for large tight gas reservoirs
-
Prior to Metgasco Kingfisher E1, In central basin high trend last well was Rappville (1985). Significant because;
-
Prior to tight gas era
-
older wells were drilled for oil - drilling fluids would have mudded off significance of gas shows.
-
Gas focus - different reservoir parameters
-
Improved drilling & completion methods
-
Planning has commenced for KE02
