Located in a water depth of 207 feet (63 meters), Rau is situated in License 7/06 in the Danish North Sea, about 165 miles (265 kilometers) west of Esbjerg. Altinex ASA serves as the operator, holding a 40% interest; RWE Dea holds 40%; and Nordsofonden holds the remaining 20% interest.
Drilled by the Noble George Sauvageau jackup, the Rau-1 exploration well encountered movable oil in Paleocene sandstone reservoirs. Additionally, three deviated sidetracks were drilled to appraise the lateral extent and size of the Rau oil accumulation. All sidetracks found oil, and confirmed the reservoir model and the extent of the Rau oil accumulation.
