>I do have one question. Does anyone out there know if Földeák 1 well was drilled with the H2S resistant pipe?

I doubt that any of us know what types of pipes were used at the Földeák-1 well; after all, it is ExxonMobil we are dealing with. They are known for keeping operational details to themselves. I've heard of opinions, that the H2S resistant pipe may not be necessary. The early H2S findings were attributed to faulty test readings and chemical reaction of fluids used in the very high temperature environment.

Once again, here is an extract from KissxOfxdeath's post:

TMF

"Some posters may not be aware that further studies appear to suggest that the hydrogen sulphide issue that caused such strife three years ago appears to have faded away as it became clear that the readings for H2S were actually due to faults in the equipment and the products used rather than being generated underground. This will significantly reduce the costs and difficulties for future development of the play if it is commercial. It only remains to wonder what might have been if the company hadnt been staffed by incompetent cowboys in the first place and it had been able to test the wells it drilled three years ago successfully."
