Not yet, ylo, but the turn from vertical to horizontal is next. Notice that the permitted TVD is 11,500'. That casing is being set to 10,900' indicates that "building the curve" should follow. I hope you get a long lateral and many frac zones with no mechanical problems.

YLO, you should consider joining the SONRIS Help Center...."teach a man (woman) to fish"

ylo. I'll leave the frac jobs question for Les. However, the portion of the horizontal well bore fractured as one interval or zone is approximately 325 linear feet. Therefore a typical lateral should have about 12 or 13 zones or frac stages.

I noticed on some wells that SONRIS reported that they have been "potentialed". Does that mean they have estimated the total potential of the well over its life? If this has been deteremined, why has it not been put in the database? The wells are in the Greenwood-Waskom field, have been completed for 2-3 months or longer, and I know they have pipelines that were put in to them, but I do not know if they have started producing.

Potential has to do with daily production, this data is used by LOC to give the operator their allowable production. All this data is already on SONRIS.

There is about a three month lag in production data on SONRIS. We operators report each months production within 30 days of the reporting month. It takes LOC and LDR another six weeks or so to process and input the data.
