Indonesia Energy Corporation (IEC), an oil and gas exploration and production company focused on Indonesia, has announced pre-drilling progress on its planned next two wells at IEC’s Kruh Block.
IEC remains on target to commence drilling at the first of these new wells before the end of this first quarter of 2026. The wells are expected to be drilled on a back-to-back basis.
Drilling pads for the next 2 wells (called the 'K-29' and the 'WK-5' wells) have been constructed for the K-29 well and delivered for the WK-5 well. Drilling pipe and drill bits and wellheads have been delivered. The drilling rig has been selected and is currently under inspection. In addition, procurement of the critical drilling explosives, tightly controlled by the Indonesian government, has been approved and the explosives have been transported to the designated warehouse.
Mr. Frank Ingriselli, IEC's President, stated 'We are excitedly moving forward with our plans to commence drilling of the next 2 wells planned on our 64,000-acre Kruh Block which I will visit during operations onsite in Sumatra. We will keep the marketplace updated as we embark on this exciting period. We believe we have world class assets in Indonesia that should contribute to our strategic plan to maximize returns on our investments and grow shareholder value.'
