The well is now shut in for a final build up period of twelve hours prior to what it describes as the retrieval of down-hole pressure gauges. James Parsons, Sound Oil's Chief Executive Officer, said: "I am pleased with the successful production test, which confirms our view that Sound Oil will be a gas producer very shortly. "The company will now focus on preparations for the forthcoming Nervesa appraisal well."The share price rose 3.23% to 8.0p by 13:31.NR
