State extends ANWR strat well deadline to Friday
The Alaska Division of Oil and Gas has extended the deadline for companies to join a consortium to drill a stratigraphic test well this winter offshore the 1002 area of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
According to Mark Myers, division director, 21 ballots were sent by email to oil companies that expressed interest in being part of the consortium.
“The deadline is the close of business July 9,” Myers said.
Jim Cowan, who is in charge of the project for the state and works with ASRC Energy Services E&P Technology, the contractor responsible for, among other things, putting a consortium together, said there were some complaints about the format of the ballot, emailed June 24.
“We made some changes … sent it out again,” he said, extending the deadline from July 2 to tomorrow.
