State Gas (ASX:GAS) has begun drilling activities at its Rolleston West project in Queensland, with two new exploration wells underway within ATP 2062, according to a Thursday filing with the Australian bourse.
The Rougemont 5 and Rougemont 6 wells have been spudded and cased to an initial depth of 12 meters, per the filing.
The gas explorer said results will support the establishment of a maiden 2P reserve targeting 30 to 50 petajoules at Rolleston West.
State Gas' shares were up 3% in recent trade.
