General

Wildcat well 2/7-18 was drilled as replacement well for 2/7-17, which was junked for technical reasons. The well should evaluate a low relief structure to the southwest of the Eldfisk Field in the southern Norwegian North Sea. The primary objective was to test the Danian - Late Cretaceous limestone and chalk. Secondary objectives were the Late Cretaceous and Jurassic where irregular and lens-shaped structures on the seismic records were interpreted as possible sandstones with stratigraphically trapped hydrocarbons.

Operations and results

Well 2/7-18 was spudded with the semi-submersible installation Borgsten Dolphin on 20 August 1980 and drilled to 601 m in assumed Pliocene sediments. After setting the 20" casing, mechanical problems forced abandonment of the well. The objectives were not reached. The well was drilled with seawater.

No logs were run, and no sample of any kind was collected.

The well was permanently abandoned on 31 August 1980 as a junk well.

Testing

No drill stem test was performed
