Sidewinder-3 was drilled to a total depth of 2,160 meters (7,085 feet), encountering 15.4 meters (50 feet) of net gas-bearing sandstones. With the four wells drilled to date, the interpreted total hydrocarbon column at Sidewinder exceeds 60 meters (196 feet) in thickness, with no water column evident in any of the Sidewinder wells.
Due to the timing of operations occurring after March 31, 2011, the Sidewinder reserve assessment was completed with information related only to the Sidewinder-1 well and does not include the now-completed Sidewinder-2, 3 and 4 wells. After considering production during the 2011 fiscal year, the 1,677,000 BOE in proved and probable reserves represents a 221% increase.
