Mosman said that when the flow rates are known, which will not be until after production facilities are installed, they will be made public.
The drilling rig will now move to the Stanley-5 location, and that well is anticipated to commence drilling next week.
Mosman Oil and Gas shares rose over 7% following the news. However, they have since given up around 2% of those initial gains, trading at 0.15p, up 5.33%. In July, MSMN shares fell after completing an EP-145 airborne survey in the Amadeus Basin in Central Australia.
