Otto Energy (ASX:OEL) has completed well operations on the F5-ST Bypass well in the Gulf of Mexico's South Marsh Island 71 (SM 71) lease, operated by Byron Energy (ASX:BYE), according to a Monday filing with the Australian bourse.
The Enterprise 264 jack-up rig was released from location on Nov. 24, the filing said.

Otto Energy and Byron each hold a 50% working interest in SM 71, as per the filing.
The company shares rose 4% on market close.
