Marathon Oil has participated in a successful step-out discovery well on the Brickyard prospect, located in the northeast area of the Anadarko Basin, targeting the Woodford Shale resource play in Canadian County, Oklahoma.
This is as part of the Company's targeted expansion into key resource plays of North America. The Cana No. 1-15H discovery well was drilled to a true vertical depth of 13,177 feet and horizontally for 4,090 feet, for a total measured well depth of 17,267 feet. The well flowed at an initial rate of 5.2 million cubic feet of gas per day. Marathon is the well operator and holds approximately 57 percent interest in the Cana No. 1-15H well. Other interest owners include Questar Corporation and Cimarex Energy. Marathon holds approximately 30,000 net acres in the expanding Woodford Shale resource play with approximately 10,000 of those net acres in the immediate Brickyard prospect area. The Company is currently drilling two additional company-operated wells and is participating in two non-operated wells in the Brickyard prospect. Marathon also plans to participate in 15 to 25 gross wells in this area through 2010 with an anticipated 50 percent overall working interest. This limited program is designed to enhance the company's technical understanding of the play and reflects the company's focus on capital discipline.
