Houston - Appraisal drilling at the promising Thunderhawk discovery in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico can likely resume "in the real near future," following recent disruption by "100p" currents,Claiborne Deming,CEO of Murphy Oil,said Thursday.Murphy operates the find,located at Mississippi Canyon Block 734,with 37.5% interest.The company encountered 500 feet of net pay in the same two sands seen in the exploration well before getting "stuck" in 100p currents,which periodically circulates in Gulf waters and affects seabed stability,Deming said.
