3D Oil has other irons in the fire

The falling oil price and the need to conserve cash among the junior players in Australia's energy sector has spurred further moves to consolidate, but the hostile bid by Drillsearch Energy for cashed-up 3D Oil is unlikely to be one of the deals that makes it across the line

3D Oil (TDO)

It's been a lively week for investors in 3D Oil, which listed a year ago at 40¢ with a plan to develop some promising acreage in the Gippsland Basin and Bass Strait. Everything looked good on Monday, with drilling results showing the West Seahorse-3 well had confirmed oil discoveries made in the late 1970s and early 1980s by Esso and Hudbay Oil. Then came a release on Tuesday with the dreaded words "intersected deeper than predicted" about potential reservoirs deeper than the main target. Still, West Seahorse-3 is being completed as a future producer, just 10 kilometres offshore. And there's another hope for investors. Drilling is set to start by the end of the week on the neighbouring Wardie-1 well to test a prospect that is just a few hundred metres away from Seahorse.
