Oct 18 (LNGJ) - Beach Energy of Australia has made a natural gas discovery at the Tarantula Deep 1 well in the onshore Perth Basin of Western Australia where an LNG project is being developed. The Tarantula Deep 1 reached total depth of 4,121 metres and is a second recent discovery by Beach.
The company said the well would be suspended to allow for future development of the discovery. “Two gas discoveries from our first three operated exploration wells is a great start to the campaign,” said Interim Chief Executive Bruce Clement. “The results at Tarantula Deep 1 have improved our understanding of the Kingia reservoir extent in the Beharra Springs area and give us greater confidence in future development and near-field exploration,” Clement added.
