The King Lear prospect is located in Production License 146 in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea. Statoil wholly owns and operates the license.
The operator commenced exploratory drilling on the prospect in January 2012. The well should take about 166 days to reach total depth, and an additional 51 days if Statoil elects to sidetrack the well. The operator is using the Maersk Gallant (350’ ILC) jackup for the drilling operations.

King Lear Not a Tragedy for Statoil
Type: New Discovery
Jul. 2012 - Drilling results confirm Statoil's earlier expectations that its King Lear prospect would be a high-impact well. Exploration well 2/4-21 drilled by the Maersk Gallant (350' ILC) in production licences 146 and 333, has proven a 48-meter gas/condensate column in the main bore 2/4-21 and an additional 70-meter gas/condensate column in the side-track 2/4-21A. Statoil estimates the total volumes in King Lear to be between 70 and 200 million barrels of recoverable oil equivalent.
