During 2Q CY2015, Norwest successfully completed the EP413 Arrowsmith 3D seismic acquisition survey on behalf of the EP413 Joint Venture. The survey was designed to assess the extent of the resource surrounding Arrowsmith-2, and to assist in defining the optimal location and target formation for Norwest’s first horizontal well, Arrowsmith-3.

The 3D dataset obtained from the acquisition program is currently being processed in the United States. Preliminary results indicate a substantial improvement in structural definition. Ongoing processing, which includes pre-stack depth migration and fracture analysis, is expected to be finalized during October. Following receipt of the final dataset, a detailed in-house interpretation will be conducted which will allow the planning for Arrowsmith-3 to continue.
