Journal Article · · Oil and Gas Journal
OSTI ID:619578

Chevron plans to start production from its Mobile 991 No. 1 well this month. The trend`s first producer is the Viosca Knoll 68 No. 2 well, which went on line April 26 at the anticipated rate of about 15 MMcfd of gas. Chevron has also tested its Viosca Knoll 114 discovery well, drilled in August 1997. Five gas discoveries since 1994 in a trend that extends now Mobile Block 991 to Viosca Knoll Block 252 have recoverable reserve potential of over 600 bcf (gross trend) of natural gas. The paper describes the carbonate trend and exploring the Lower Cretaceous James deposit.
