Kea Petroleum has commenced drilling of Puka-3 using the Drill Force Rig 6.

Puka-3 is targeting Mt Messenger formation sands at about 1,580m True Vertical Depth which have been interpreted from the recent 50 square km 3D seismic reflection survey carried out in the south western part of PEP 51153.

The drilling of Puka-3, from the same well pad as the producing Puka-1 and Puka-2 wells, is the major component of Phase 1 of the farm-out agreement with MEO New Zealand Pty Limited.
