San Leon Announces Four New Exploration Wells in Poland

Ireland-based San Leon Energy disclosed its intention to drill three exploration wells in Poland, two in the Karpaty area and one in the Permian Basin.

According to the plans, the operations should start in mid-September and would be part of single campaign using one single rig.  

‘All wells are relatively shallow and are in a proven hydrocarbon trend area. All three wells are expected to be completed before the end of the year,’ the company wrote on Thursday. 

San Leon also said that the planned Lewino horizontal well in the Gdansk W shale gas concession is in advanced engineering planning. 

‘Finalisation of the well and frac design, and a decision to drill, will be taken following analysis of results from the nearby ConocoPhilips/3Legs and BNK wells.’

The company is progressively focusing on Poland. It recently relinquished its licence in Germany and it plans to relinquish its assets in Italy and Marocco. 

Recently, San Leon Energy signed a Joint Venture Agreement with Palomar Natural Resources (PNR) to develop the Siekierki and Rawicz gas fields.
