Fossil Energy – Drilling
THREE60 Energy has secured an extensive contract with Crogga Limited to drill an appraisal well in the Crogga gas field offshore Isle of Man.
If the well proves successful, it has the potential to provide energy independence to the Isle of Man by 2026.
The appraisal well, called Independence, will be used to establish commercial flow rates of gas from the conventional Permian Collyhurst Sandstone reservoir. This is the first well to be drilled under the island’s jurisdiction and, if successful, could lead to Crogga becoming one of the largest field developments in the East Irish Sea.
The scope of work to be undertaken by THREE60 Energy is for the provision of detailed well engineering and well planning, including contracting of a drilling rig, procurement of drilling services and equipment, as well as offshore execution and project close out.
The company will also provide well operator services, including engagement, liaison and accountability with regulators and stakeholders, emergency response capabilities and turnkey project management.
