HOUSTON -- The Telemark Hub is on schedule to begin production by the end of this month from the Atwater Valley block 63 No. 4 well, according to operator ATP. The well has tested 10,700 boe/d from two zones.

ATP Titan, the hub production platform, is in the final stages of commissioning. Following installation of the platform drilling rig, ATP will re-enter and complete the Mississippi Canyon block 941 No. 3 well, for first production in the second quarter.

Meanwhile, the company has connected a new well to the Canyon Express Hub. The Mississippi Canyon block 217 No. 3 well is flowing 30 MMcf/d. At Aconcagua, two additional wells are scheduled to resume production at 30 MMcf/d, bringing total Canyon Express Hub production up to 60 MMcf/d.

ATP operates both Telemark and Canyon Express with 100% and 50% working interest, respectively.
