PARIS (Dow Jones)–Drilling relief wells near the Elgin oil rig in the North Sea to stop a natural gas leak may take more than six months, French oil major Total SA (TOT), which owns the rig, said Friday.
“The time taken to drill wells in Elgin surpassed six months so it is right to expect a similar timeframe (for the relief wells operation),” Eric Casse, Total’s Drilling & Well Operations Manager for Europe, the Americas and Central Asia said in a video posted by Total on its website.
