Comet Ridge Concludes Stimulation Activity at Queensland CSG Well

Comet Ridge has concluded stimulation activity on Mahalo 3 coal seam gas well in Queensland and now plans to restart the well and resume dewatering to establish the effectiveness of the stimulation work carried out.

The company has decided to delay the Mahalo 5 stimulation to observe the performance of Mahalo 3. Planning is underway for a rig to return to the area and stimulate Mahalo 5 in the next one to two months, allowing sufficient time to evaluate the effectiveness of the work done at Mahalo 3, the company said.

At the Mira pilot project, approximately 13km southeast of the Mahalo pilot, dewatering of the wells is ongoing. In mid-January, the pilot began producing a small amount of measurable gas which has been increasing on a steady basis. All four wells in the Mira pilot project will continue pumping with further gas and water flows monitored.

Comet Ridge has 355 share in the in ATP 337P Mahalo Block.
