Energy Resource Technology GOM, based in Houston, completed a Pliocene oil well on the company’s Tornado development in Green Canyon Block 281. The #1SS (ST) OCS G33242 flowed at a rate in excess of 20 Mboe/d during a two-week period. According to IHS Markit, the company intends to lower the flowrate to 13-16 Mboe/d until a second well is drilled and completed. The sidetrack was drilled to 20,755 ft. Are water depth is 2,750 ft. The Tornado discovery is south of Energy Resources’ Phoenix (Block 236) Field. Field recovery through August 2016 is 2.4 MMbbl of crude/condensate and 3.7 Bcf of gas. Wells in the deepwater reservoir produce from a Pliocene zone at 15,592-18,243 ft. Minority partners in the discovery include Deep Gulf Energy III LLC and Sojitz Energy Venture Inc.
