Jasper Offshore announces that the Jasper Explorer drillship has arrived at Pointe Noire in the Republic of Congo and is currently preparing for commencement of drilling operations.
In January Jasper signed a contract with CNOOC Congo SA for the deployment of the Pelican Class self propelled drillship.
Under the contract, the Jasper Explorer will drill two firm wells plus one option well.
The program duration for the two firm wells is anticipated to be about 100 days excluding any well testing.
Jasper Explorer is capable of operating in 5,000 ft of water with a DP-2 system.
