Stone Energy Corporation SGY today announced that the partnership drilling the Lighthouse Bayou
prospect in southwestern Louisiana has decided to temporarily suspend drilling
operations. The well has reached a total depth of 25,500 feet and, in doing
so, has reached the technical limits of the current drilling equipment.
Current plans include running protective liner to the current depth,
temporarily plugging and abandoning the well, procuring drilling equipment
with higher pressure ratings, and returning to drill deeper in 2012 to test
the objective Wilcox section.
