PanCanadian announces results of Shoal Point well

CALGARY, May 26 /CNW/ - PanCanadian Petroleum Limited and its partners
have completed the drilling and testing of their exploration well at Shoal
Point, on the Port au Port Peninsula in western Newfoundland.
The well was drilled to a total depth of 3,035 metres, encountering one
zone of potential interest. A drill stem test of the zone flowed salt water.
No significant hydrocarbons were encountered. PanCanadian and its partners
will abandon the well and reclaim the site.
''While we had high hopes for this well, it has obviously fallen short of
our expectations,'' said Gerry Macey, PanCanadian's Executive Vice President
Exploration. ''The results of this and previous wells along Newfoundland's
west coast indicate the high-risk nature of exploration in this frontier
region.''
PanCanadian will evaluate the data obtained from the Shoal Point well
before deciding upon future exploration plans for the area.
PanCanadian is one of Canada's largest producers and marketers of crude
oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Its extensive exploration and
production activities stretch from coast to coast in Canada and include a
variety of international interests in the Gulf of Mexico, the United Kingdom,
Australia, Africa and Venezuela.
