Lundin Petroleum AB has announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Lundin Norway AS, has completed the drilling and evaluation of exploration well 6407/10-4 on the Lorry prospect. The well is located in PL700B, on the northern part of the Frøya High in the southern Norwegian Sea. The well was dry and has been plugged and abandoned.

The main objective was to test the Upper Jurassic pinchout play, and prove presence of hydrocarbon in the Rogn Formation. The Upper Jurassic was encountered, but with no development of Rogn reservoir.

Exploration well 6407/10-4 is the first well drilled in PL700B. The well was drilled to a total depth of 3224 m below mean sea level in a water depth of 335 m.

The well was drilled with the semi-submersible drilling unit Island Innovator and has been permanently plugged and abandoned.

Lundin Norway is the operator of PL700B with a 40% working interest. The partners are Bayerngas Norge AS (20%), GDF Suez E&P Norge AS (20%) and VNG Norge AS (20%).
