The vertical well and <strong>the</strong> sidetrack, Kingfisher1A, both flowed hydrocarbons <strong>to</strong> surface from thin Late Miocene—Pliocene sands. Kingfisher-1 tested alocally developed Early Pliocene (zone P2a) sand (13) . Kingfisher-1A penetrated a water bearing P2a sand.However, Kingfisher-1A also tested oil from th<strong>re</strong>e separate sands in Late Miocene—Early PlioceneP1/M6 cycle.Figu<strong>re</strong> 25:Seismic Section through Kingfisher 1 Well22FEB200803421223The Early Pliocene P2a sand tested in Kingfisher-1 is 12m thick. Kingfisher-1A penetrated th<strong>re</strong>e oilbearing sands within a 100m interval spanning <strong>the</strong> Miocene-Pliocene boundary at between 1,520 and1,630 m TVDSS (Figu<strong>re</strong> 26).
