OMV spudded exploration well 6506/11-10 on the HPHT Hades and Iris prospects in PL 644 B using the âDeepsea Bergenâ S/S on 28 November 2017. The well was drilled to TD at 4,536 m in the Lower Jurassic Ror Formation and has confirmed gas condensate discoveries in both prospects. The Hades reservoir is the Lower Cretaceous Lange Formation at 3,932 m. A 35 m gas condensate column was proven with 15 m of net sandstone. No GWC was found. Estimated recoverable reserves range from 19 to 113 MMboe. The Iris reservoir was confirmed at 4,223 m. The Middle Jurassic Garn Formation contains a 95 m gas condensate column with 85 m of net sandstone. The GWC lies at 4,295 m subsea and recoverable reserves are estimated at 19-132 MMboe. Pressure data has shown that the two hydrocarbon columns are not in communication. It is likely that the finds will be appraised in due course. On 18 April 2018 the well is still being abandoned.   PL 644 B consists of a 28 sq km area over the northern part of block 6506/11, immediately north of Morvin, and was awarded in APA 2015. The adjacent PL 644 covers parts of the surrounding blocks 6506/8, 6506/10 and 6506/11.   Morvin was discovered in 2001 by 6506/11-7 and the PDO was approved on 25 April 2008. The field came onstream in August 2010 using two subsea templates tied-back to Asgard B. The field's reservoir is also HPHT.  PL 644 B is operated by OMV (Norge) AS (30%). OMV is partnered by Statoil Petroleum AS (30%), Faroe Petroleum Norge AS (20%) and Spirit Energy Norge AS (20%).
