Work on Canje Block well to be paused for drillship maintenance

JHI associates on Tuesday said that drilling operations at the Jabillo-1 well site in the Canje Block offshore Guyana will be discontinued in a few days to facilitate maintenance of the Stena Carron drillship and the drilling of the Koebi-1 well in the Stabroek Block.

“The Stena Carron initiated drilling operations at the Jabillo-1 well site on March 14. These operations will take approximately one week, after which the Stena Carron will undergo maintenance. Jabillo-1 will resume drilling in approximately mid-late May, following the drilling of the Koebi-1 well in the neighboring Stabroek Block,” a statement by JHI revealed.

JHI owns a 17.5% interest in the Canje Block, alongside block Operator ExxonMobil (35%), Total (35%), and Mid-Atlantic Oil & Gas, Inc. (12.5%).
