HOUSTON, Jan. 25 – The Brooks Range Development Corp. unit of TG World Energy Corp., Calgary, and its Alaska joint venture partners took a farmout from an undisclosed multinational oil company covering six leases at North Tarn on the west side of giant Kuparuk oil field on Alaska’s North Slope.

The North Tarn exploration prospect is based on 3D seismic mapping. Drilling to 6,500 ft late this winter or next winter is to test two reservoirs, both of which produce in the Kuparuk Field Unit.
