This test number can be used to establish production limits for the well. From Les B. on GHS concerning Louisiana practice � �the allowable production is set by the well test information submitted to the State by the operator on the Louisiana State Potential Report (SDM2G). This is the reason the scout report will list <span class=SpellE>a</span> well as "<span class=SpellE>potentialed</span>". I have not reviewed in some time but the rules allow the operator some flexibility if the well's monthly production exceeds its allowable. A well is tested every 6 months for the purpose of setting a new allowable.
