IOG completes flow test at Blythe development well

IOG (LSE: IOG – 31.5p) has said its estimates for one of its key North Sea fields are in line with forecasts, after checks were successfully completed.

The Blythe well successfully drilled, cleaned up and flow tested to a maximum gas rate of 45.5 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscf/d) through an 80/64th inch choke, all within two months of being spudded.

That gives it a “good improvement in drilling performance” over the Elgood well, which is also forms part of the Saturn Banks project, formerly known as the Core project.
