Aurora plans first Kenai Peninsula wells

Aurora Gas LLC, which has been drilling exclusively on the west side of Cook Inlet, is now adding Kenai Peninsula prospects to its drilling schedule.

The company has filed for an oil discharge prevention and contingency plan with the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation for wells to be drilled during the 2004-05 winter season on both sides of the inlet.

Aurora has four prospect locations on the west side of Cook Inlet ranging from four to 10 miles west-northwest of Tyonek.

There are two prospect locations on the east or Kenai Peninsula side of the inlet, approximately 15 miles from the city of Kenai near Forest Lake.

And there is one prospect location on the east or Kenai Peninsula side approximately three miles east of Anchor Point and 15 miles northwest of Homer.
