Cement was pumped into the bottom of the hole yesterday ...
On the plateform during the cementing job, last night.

Cement was pumped into the bottom of the hole yesterday afternoon in order to close off a leaking zone and fill up a cavity near the end of the anchor casing. Measurments after the first attempt showed loss of cement into the rock as the cement level had subsided down to 2002 m. Cement slurry was pumped down a second time overnight and now it is believed that the hole has been sealed off. POOH is currently in progress.
