Americas Petrogas reaches total depth at Los Toldos Este well in Argentina

EBR Staff Writer Published 03 February 2012

Canada-based Americas Petrogas has reached a total depth of about 3,250m at its Los Toldos Este vertical well in the Neuquen basin of Argentina.

The well was cored during drilling and extensive logging operations are currently underway.

The well mainly targets the Vaca Muerta shale formation in the Los Toldos blocks (163,500 gross acres or 255 sections) and other zones of interest include the Mulichinco, Tordillo and Quintuco formations.

Americas Petrogas is the operator of the well and this is the first well within a farm-out deal between Americas Petrogas and ExxonMobil Exploration Argentina.

The company intends to case the well and it will conduct detailed study and lab analysis of the cores, logs and rock cuttings to determine optimum zones for testing and completion.
