Jffree, I have to give you an A+ on that one.

Skip, the packers are not actually removed but rather balls drilled to allow flowback.

It is likely the completion was open hole and utilized packers for isolation rather than composite plugs.

Ken, this looks like a completion technique that is not utilized for the Haynesville Shale wells. It entails completing the well "open-hole" by running packers in the hole on 4&1/2" casing. Jffree posted information for one example of such a system. It may be feasible for a James Lime well but no one seems to use such an approach for the Haynesville Shale which are completed in the cased hole and utilize drillable plugs.

Les, a well spuded and 21 days later was flaring over by the pits...is this normal?

Ken, it depends on the well. For a conventional well, the operator could be doing some type of drill stem testing of a productive zone. I reckon for either a conventional well or a Haynesville Shale well, the operator could have drilled thru a zone above the target formation that contained gas and generated the need for flaring some gas. That would be considered unusual and not normal in my opinion.
