Hilcorp gets two Pearl drilling permits

The Alaska Oil and Gas Conversation Commission has issued two more drilling permits for Hilcorp Alaska LLC to develop the proposed Pearl project at the Ninilchik unit.

On June 20, the AOGCC issued permits for the Pearl No. 3 and Pearl No. 6 stratigraphic test wells on private leases located near the boundary of the coastal Cook Inlet unit.

In recent permitting documents, Hilcorp announced plans to build the new Pearl pad to support a one-well program on a lease just beyond the southern boundary of the unit. The proposed pad would target an area south of the Susan Dionne-Paxton participating area.

The AOGCC issued a permit on June 13 for Hilcorp to drill the Pearl No. 1A well.
