[{"type":"text","content":"\n \nRNS Number : 7098S Pantheon Resources PLC 13 March 2019 \n\n \n \n \n \n \n13 March, 2019\n \nPantheon Resources plc\n \nWinx-1 Exploration Well drilling update\n \nPantheon Resources plc (\"Pantheon\" or \"the Company\"), the AIM-quoted oil and gas exploration company with working interests in several conventional project areas in Tyler and Polk Counties, onshore East Texas, as well as onshore North Slope of Alaska following its January 2019 acquisition of the assets of Great Bear Petroleum, advises the following update in relation to the WInx-1 well (\"Winx-1\") located on the Western Blocks, North Slope of Alaska:\n \nHighlights: Winx-1 Exploration Well, Alaska, PANR 10% working interest\n· Comprehensive wireline logging program successfully completed at Winx-1, full petrophysical analysis and review commenced \n· Provisional petrophysical analysis of the wireline logging program indicates low oil saturations in the primary Nanushuk Topset objectives; testing and fluid sampling indicates that reservoir quality and fluid mobility at this location is insufficient to warrant production testing, despite encouragement from oil shows and logging while drilling (LWD) data \n· Zones of interest in the Torok formation, secondary objectives, were identified on wireline logs, which similarly exhibited low oil saturations and did not flow hydrocarbons during the Modular Formation Dynamics Test (MDT) pressure testing and fluid sampling program \nThe operator, 88 Energy Limited, has advised that petrophysical interpretation of the LWD data at Winx-1 indicated elevated resistivities associated with increased mud gas ratios (C1 - C5) in the distinctive Nanushuk Topset sequence comparable with other successful neighbouring wells in the Nanushuk play fairway. Early indications were encouraging and, on this basis, a comprehensive wireline program was undertaken to further evaluate the interval of interest. \nThe wireline program was designed to fully evaluate and quantify the reservoir potential and associated shows in the Nanushuk Topsets. The suite comprised specialist logging tools capable of quantifying laminated pay zones, including nuclear magnetic resonance; a triaxial induction tool that...
