The Noble Sam Croft vessel is currently undertaking drilling operations at the Hatchetfish-1 well in Guyana’s Stabroek Block, operated by ExxonMobil.
According to the Maritime Administration Department (MARAD) the drillship is being assisted by 23 vessels. Those include Deep Ocean’s Seim Day multi-purpose support vessel (MPSV).
The well site is approximately 121.8 nautical miles (225.6 kilometers) off Guyana’s coast and covers an area of 0.29 square nautical miles (1 square kilometer).
Exxon Guyana President, Alistair Routledge said the company is targeting seven prospects this year. There is Trumpetfish and Redmouth, two anchor-hunting wells, which are targeting new reserve bases for potential standalone developments. And then five exploration and appraisal wells under its greenlit 35-well campaign.
