<<<PetroQuest Well Tests at 20.3 MMcf Per Day at High Island Block A-494
LAFAYETTE, La.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 8, 1999--PetroQuest Energy, Inc.'s (Nasdaq:PQUE) (TSE:PQU.) Well No. C-1 at High Island Block A-494 has tested at 20.3 million cubic feet of natural gas (MMcf) per day on a 31/64 -- inch choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 2,766 pounds per square inch and shut in tubing pressure of 3,323 pounds per square inch. PetroQuest is the operator and owns a 42 percent working interest. The other significant owner is Callon Petroleum Company (NYSE:CPE) which owns a 50 percent working interest.
The well was drilled to a total depth of 8,800' and encountered 207 feet of gross hydrocarbon column with 80' of net natural gas pay in the Chris S. Sand. The well was completed with a frac pac to improve completion efficiency, minimize drawdown, and increase reserve recovery.
As an update, PetroQuest plans to drill the CL&F No. 13, a Hollywood Sand test in the Turtle Bayou Field, Terrebonne Parish, La., in March. It has also proposed to partners and anticipates drilling the 1st test well as a result of the recently received 3-D seismic survey in Valentine Field, Lafourche Parish, La., by early April. Combined, the prospects have unrisked potential of 124 BCF of natural gas and 2.5 million barrels of condensate. PetroQuest expects to have a 35 percent working interest in both of these wells.
PetroQuest Energy is an independent oil and gas company headquartered in Lafayette, La., with an exploration office in Houston. It is engaged in the exploration, development, acquisition and operation of oil and gas properties in Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico.
