Second well test of Dambořice 9
The last drilling here was in the summer of 2023. While the frogs were croaking then, now, at the end of winter, there are plenty of hares and deer roaming the surrounding fields. And in the evenings, beavers are regularly seen cupitating in the adjacent Burnt Creek.
And why is it being drilled again in the same place? Simply because the original project did not turn out positively, but provided very promising information.
The Dambořice 9 prospect is analogous to the Borkovany deposit in the deeper part of the palaeogene fill of the Nesvačil trench. Prospective resources (expected reserve size) here are 330 million cubic meters of gas.

Krumvir 3 - four kilometres underground, potentially huge reserves
The deepest borehole in the Czech Republic in the last 30 years has received considerable media attention. Representatives of newspapers, TV and radio stations went to the area around Krumvír in South Moravia, where Bentec 350 is working. MND arranged an excursion for them to show their readers, viewers and listeners what it is like to work on a borehole that goes more than four kilometres underground.
Bentec 250 among French vineyards
It is not unusual to see one of MND Drilling and Services (MND DS) rigs towering in the vineyard. This time, however, the vineyards around our Bentec 250 rig were French, as our company returned to the French market after several years.
Borkovany 8 - continuation of a successful deposit
The Borkovany 8 well site is quite densely populated with technology. The Bentec 350 rig is complemented by five trestles, one gas-producing production cross and other infrastructure. For a number of years now, the Borkovany deposit has been in production, and well number 8 will continue to do so. The expected reserves have been confirmed.
