LONDON — Viaro Energy subsidiary RockRose Energy has secured a 100% interest in license P.2593 west of Shetland in northern UK waters.
The permit is close to RockRose’s part-owned producing fields and infrastructure in the region.
It includes the Tuck discovery, a Cretaceous gas discovery on the northwest flank of the Rona Ridge. Tuck is supported by an amplitude anomaly, which suggests potential for thicker and better-quality reservoir sands updip and along strike from the discovery well.
In addition, the license area contains various prospects such as Boulmer, said to be a drill-ready Devonian structure with up to 800 m of Lower Clair sediments.
Viaro CEO Francesco Mazzagatti said, “The license’s proximity to our existing assets in the Greater Laggan Area offers important potential for extending the life of the infrastructure, including the Shetland Gas Plant. The work program will also focus on exploring electrification and other technological innovations to reduce emissions in the area.”
RockRose is also present in the Dutch North Sea as a partner in the A15 platform, where operator Petrogas recently produced first gas from a three-well development.
