Angus Energy plc has restarted production from the Brockham 2Y well within PL235 near Dorking in Surrey.
GROWTH
The workover of the well concluded in late May, a new pump installed and repairs and upgrades made to the surface equipment.
The company said that after a period of flow to clean up the well, production resumed at circa 120 bbls/day of total fluid, of which 40% is currently oil.
Angus will monitor the well over the coming days to determine the potential for future production.
All produced water was reinjected at the site into the reservoir for pressure support.
Chief executive Richard Herbert added that production at Brockam reflected the company’s first step in expanding through organic and inorganic growth.
“We are very pleased with our progress at the Brockham field to resume production.
“The workover was completed safely and on schedule and budget, with the new pump starting up on the 28 May.
“The well is now producing oil in excess of management’s predicted flowrates and with the present surface configuration is expected to sustain 30-40 bbls/day of oil, with potential to increase further with operational improvements.”
Angus has an 80% interest in Brockham with Terrain Energy and Brockham Capital each holding 10%.
