Buru Energy has encountered good to excellent shows while drilling through the primary objective Reeves Formation at its highly-prospective Adoxa-1 conventional oil exploration well in the Canning Basin, Western Australia. Live oil shows were observed at the surface and the well also intersected oil shows in cuttings samples of interpreted good quality sands at 970m and 1,565m measured depth.

Buru Energy has spudded the Adoxa-1 conventional oil exploration well targeting the potential for multiple stacked reservoirs within the greater Yakka Munga regional structure in the Canning Basin, Western Australia. A success at Adoxa-1 will supplement and enhance the company's existing reserves and production cashflow from the nearby Ungani Oilfield and potentially unlock several follow-up structures in the area.

Buru Energy has spudded its highly anticipated Ungani-6 horizontal production well that is aimed at increasing the ASX-listed company's oil production in the vastly underexplored Canning Basin in WA's north. It will be completed to intersect the target Ungani Dolomite reservoir before the rig moves on to drill the Ungani-7 production well. A coiled tubing unit will then be mobilised to drill the horizontal sections of both wells.

Buru Energy is preparing to kick off its 2019 drilling season in the Canning Basin in northern WA with the mobilisation of the NGD Loc 405 drill rig from Perth to its Ungani-6 horizontal oil production well, which is expected to spud in the first week of May. Work has also started on the drill pad for the Ungani-7 horizontal production well, which is located next to the existing Ungani-4 well.

Buru Energy will soon gain a clearer understanding of the Butler conventional oil and gas prospect that straddles both its EP 129 and Rey Resources' EP 487 in the Canning Basin, northern WA. London-based Doriemus, who is earning a 50% interest in Rey's permit, is preparing to drill the Butler-1 well to test the gross unrisked mean prospective resources of 3.14Tcf of gas and 42 million barrels of associated condensate.

Buru Energy is cashed up, partnered up and has a glint in its eye again as it embarks on a multi-million dollar search for more oil riches in the lucrative Canning hydrocarbon basin in WA's north. Buru is preparing to drill two production wells to increase production at its Ungani oilfield and up to four exploration wells to test promising oil prospects in the underexplored region. With $64m in the bank and Chinese firm Roc Oil riding shotgun with a $20m farm in agreement, Buru has its chip back on the board.
