A joint venture led by Brooks Range Development Corp. plans to develop a North Slope discovery it made this winter with the aim of producing oil as soon as July 2014.
The local subsidiary of Kansas-based Alaska Venture Capital Group drilled the onshore North Tarn No. 1 well this past winter two miles west of the Kuparuk River unit. The 6,223-foot well encountered oil-bearing sandstones, but well control challenges kept the companies from testing the well, which it plans to do this coming winter, according to a partner on the program.
