I looked in the sky and it is orange. Oh yes I have seen this before only its a lot bigger, what I drove down the road to see was the utica well being flared off on the patterson well. It had to be four or five times the size of the marcellus well flare which was in of itself a pretty good one. This well has a marcellus and a utica on it as a"test well". Looks like they passed the test. It is amazing and really hot from afar. It was raining and so as the flame was taller than the flare pipe, the groud was steaming all arond.

Hilcorp grew up in the Eagle Ford of Tx.  They specialize in wet gas and light oils.

Where did you see the oil amounts listed? What about condensates?

Dennis and Glen,

Is that a good condensate number =40.83?  if not what is a good condensate number for a well?

That's not much condensate or oil at all.

Dennis, I believe what CHK is doing is hiding their numbers by using BTU levels (which is unknown to us) in their calculations. I only saw a check stub once, but I believe it was #BTU's/mfc or was it cf? I understand natural gas needs to be 1000 BTUs  or close when entering a pipeline. They can hide these condensate numbers by selling/using higher BTU #'s in their accounting. I believe CHK got constrained on selling gas from the Thompson well for awhile because the BTU's were too high. Not sure what they are doing about it.

I noticed that both Patterson wells reporting are designated N under the horizontal header......Are they getting this much gas from Vertical wells? Or is this a typo?

Also , I wonder why the other two wells on site are not tied inline yet? Does anyone out there have any answers?

Glen,

It appears as though both the wells very originally permited vertical and under revision they were changed to horizontal, I think.

Both the current production wells permits are now listed as: 

1):  073-20353-01 , & 2) 073-20345-01

Thanks Chris. I just happened to scroll over far enough to notice this and thought there was no way they could be verticals...lol

Have the other 2 wells been hooked up to pipeline yet?

Here we go another well @ Patterson pad. This time its Sidwinder drilling rig 62 the pics are from today May 29 2015

Thanks Mike. Good to hear from you!
I wonder why they keep drilling here and let so many other leaseholds languish? In the next 16-18 months they will have to re-sign thousands of acres to hold on to them. One would think they'd be concentrating on getting wells drilled elsewhere to hold as many of us as they can in this limited time frame.....?
One simple reason is that the pad is already built... A lot cheaper to drill off a previously built pad than to build a new one. Especially if starting out in a new area.
Thanks KAR. I just keep hoping for them to branch out and make some new pads. I'm only 3 or 4 miles away and the Tennessee runs through several hundred feet of my p roperty. A pad would sure put a smile on my face! Lol!
