North Sea explorer Valiant Petroleum reports a new well has kicked off on the UK Tryfan prospect operated by Apache.

Drilling in block 3/17 in the Northern North Sea, the Tryfan well is described as an Eocene channel sand play which has a strong seismic amplitude response.

Internal estimates by Valiant – which has 33.33% equity in the Tryfan well – suggest the prospect could contain up to 24 million barrels of oil equivalent and 8 m boe net to Valiant.

Drilling with the Borgsten Dolphin semi-submersible is expected to take up to 25 days.

Tryfan and the related Skiddaw prospects were originally scheduled for drilling last year and according to a presentation by Apache had a pre-drill reserves estimate of 40 m boe.

Four other Apache prospects, Seagull and Seagull North, plus Isabella and Jessica are due to be drilled by Apache this year.
