Dependant on the HUD, there is potential to re-perforate the Fulmar interval, at depths of 3,699 – 3,734 m RKB (12,135 ft - 12,251 ft).   The current two GLVs will then be changed using dual advanced Kick Over Tool (KOT) complete with electric line stroker.  At the proposed depth, the tubing will be punched and an additional Interwell GLV straddle system will be inserted.   The A-annulus will then be bled down and an acoustic log performed to ensure the integrity of the well.
