The following statement will be made at the Company's Annual General Meeting to be held today at 11.00 am.

 

BNG

Deep well - Airshagyl 5

 

Drilling has resumed and by Friday, 27 June 2014 reached a depth of 4,236 meters.

 

The well's principal target is the Carboniferous formation at 4,390 meters with a subsidiary target in the Permian formation at 4,120 meters. To date we have yet to find indications of oil from the subsidiary target horizon.

At Well 143 the interval between 1,961-1,974 meters has been perforated prior to further testing.
