Brookside Energy Ltd (ASX:BRK, OTC:RDFEF) has cased and cemented the casing in place at the Fleury Well in Oklahoma’s Anadarko Basin and is now drilling ahead in the lateral section at a measured depth of ~12,975 feet.
Fleury is part of the company’s multi-well Flames-Maroons Development Plan (FMDP) in the SCOOP Play which is targeting the highly productive Sycamore Lime and Woodford Shale formations in the basin’s south.
Curve landed
All operations are continuing safely, on budget and on time and after drilling out the casing, the drilling of the curve commenced with the curve landed successfully.
The curve section, which is between the kick-off point in the vertical part of the well and the landing point in the lateral or horizontal part of the well, requires careful directional drilling in order to land the curve at the correct depth in the target formation.

About FMDP
Of the four wells in the multi-well FMDP drilling program in the core of the southern SCOOP Play, three are being drilled from the Sanford Pad - the Fleury, Maroons and Iginla wells.
Once these wells have been drilled and cased the drill rig will move to the Flames Well pad and drill the fourth well, the Rocket Well.
