Operational Update: Broadford Bridge-1/1z Oil Discovery, Weald Basin, UK

 

UK Oil & Gas Investments PLC (London AIM: UKOG) has been informed by its 100%-owned subsidiary Kimmeridge Oil & Gas Limited that well testing operations have now ceased at Broadford Bridge in West Sussex. Equipment is being removed from the site and the Company will update the market once data and test results have been assessed.

In the meantime, the focus now shifts to the Horse Hill well site (located in licence PEDL137), operated by Horse Hill Developments Ltd (HHDL), where an extended well test of the Horse Hill-1 oil discovery will commence once all regulatory approvals are in place. UKOG owns a 49.9 per cent interest in HHDL and 32.435 per cent interest in the Horse Hill site and PEDL137.
