Beach Energy - Halifax-1

Beach Energy Limited advises that the Halifax-1 unconventional gas well (Beach 60% and operator, Icon Energy Ltd 40%) reached total depth of 4,267 metres on Tuesday, 16 October 2012.

Beach is encouraged by preliminary interpretation of log data, which indicates the Permian target zone is likely to be gas saturated from the Toolachee Formation through the Patchawarra Formation. Further interpretation will be required following processing in order to confirm this initial analysis.

Halifax-1 has the thickest Roseneath Shale, Epsilon Formation and Murteree Shale (REM) section, at approximately 460 metres, when compared with other Nappamerri Trough wells drilled to date. The Patchawarra Formation is greater than 490 metres thick.
