Pretty Cool. Thanks, Buck.

Skip, here are some of the "official" IP rates previously released by the operators. Sometimes the flow data shown in Sonris may be before a well has completely cleaned up.

R E Smith, Jr 32 #1 - 11100 MMcfd, 5900 psi, 24/64" choke
Martin Timber #2 - 17400 MMcfd, 4700 psi
H K Griffith 11 #1 - 23300 MMcfd, 28/64" choke
Sharp III 7 #1 - 5100 MMcfd, 22/64" choke

To show Petrohawk's consistency, the Osborne 8 #1 well was in the same section as the Woodley 8 #6 well and tested at almost the same exact rate.

What is TVD

Permalink Reply by Les Bamburg on March 30, 2009 at 17:50

Danny, TVD stands for True Vertical Depth and MD is Measured Depth.

Les,

How long can they report "in test"?

Parker, I don't know if there is any official limit. In many cases I believe there is just a lot of delay in getting Sonris up to date on well status. In some instances I think testing is over and the well is just waiting to be placed on production or it is on production and Sonris has just not been updated.

Les thanks for the definitions.

Thanks, Les. I'm still curious about the reason for the partial perforation/frac in the Smith well.

Skip, I do not have a reasonable explanation. Some early wells encountered problems in getting all the frac stages completed which results in only part of the lateral producing. Maybe that was the case here and they elected not to list the perfs in the south half of the lateral. Of course, this assumes Sonris is accurately showing the perf information.

Silly question but one I've never gotten it straight:
The 'mcf' quoted above: does that mean millions of cubic feet, and if so, why isn't it stated as Mmcf, which is the shorthand used on the royalty calculator websites (which are a ton of fun even if not very accurate)
When you're talking wellhead production, would 6 Mcf and 6 Mmcf be the same thing? Do people use Mcf/Mmcf interchangeably?

many thanks for clarifying!

Mcf = thousand cubic feet. MMcf = million cubic feet.

so if a well lists gas prod (MCF) 167745 on sonris for month of 6/1/2011,

would it be producing 3349 MMCF per day?
