Indonesia Energy’s K-29 well drills ahead in Sumatra

Indonesia Energy’s K-29 well continued drilling on schedule at the company’s Kruh Block on the island of Sumatra, reaching a depth of more than 2,500 ft toward a planned total depth of approximately 3,400 ft. The well, drilled with PT Bina Mitra Artha’s BMA #9 rig, spudded 25 July 2026.

IEC expects to enter the targeted reservoir zone at approximately 3,000 ft, where the company plans to conduct a coring job to determine the optimal stimulation method based on the rock’s natural characteristics. Drilling will then proceed to total depth, followed by wireline logging, casing and cementing, and perforation, before the well is prepared for production.

Following completion of K-29, IEC plans to begin drilling operations at the WK-5 wellsite as part of its ongoing Kruh Block program, with preparatory operations at that site progressing as planned. K-29 and WK-5 are each located within IEC’s 63,000-acre block.
