From the way it looks now... waaaaaaaaaay  end of summer into Sept...

they supposedly wont frac till May sometime.. and then looks like they hold off paying

for about 5 months.. then one check.. and then monthly..

gonna be  a looong summer.. and for some reason... the Kastelic well is hitting

HARD ? shale...first leg had problems.. now the 2nd started and problems already...

Just saw a HUGE NICKALOKAZIC ? CRANE.. BIG CRANE  GO INTO THE PAD...

BIG ENOUGHT TO PICK UP THE WHOLE DRILL RIG.. AND MOVE IT OVER TO NEXT HOLE

RATS...

I will go over and scope it out this afternoon...

No other reason for a HUGE GIANT CRANE TO GO ONTO PAD.. IF NOT MOVING RIG...

which means ONE HOLE is lost.?  all this is just conjecture so far...

but NICKILAKASUS ? CRANE coming in... adds to the mystery...

rats...

that well pad has 12,count-em 12, big tanks on it. That's about 6 more than other well pads that are suppose to be good producers. It would take quite a few tanker trucks to drain those 12 tanks!

I talked to one driver about all those tanks and he said only 6 are for oil.. cant remember

what he said about the others...gettn old...:(

but just 6 for oil.... 3 for each lateral...

only 2 laterals producing at Clark.. but PRESSURE is moving the oil out...:):):)

Mike, are they drilling 24/7 ?

Permalink Reply by Mike Fulper on March 25, 2014 at 7:49am

Been 24/7 for a month almost... did the first lateral south..

Now doing my two laterals  north..

They do shutdown for a couple days to let concrete harden...during casing time

then back up again for another couple hundred feet..?  and down again.. etc ..

Fracking not due to start till May sometime...

Here is what I think.. being delusional.....

In the simplest terms.. they drill.... they go horizontal... they put in the casing..

they BLOW HOLES every so often to FRACTURE  the rock..

WITH THIS SHALE BEING SOOOO HARD....MEANS.... TAKES MORE POWER

TO FRACK. OR CRACK ! THE ROCK..

THEN..... THE BIG THING IS......................since the shale is so  HARD..

sand wont do for keeping the FISSURES apart....

ANYONE wanting more OIL outa this stuff is gonna have to use the HEAVY DUTY

MARBLES... IE... Proppopant ? IE... very special LITTLE HARD "CERAMIC" ?

BB's ?   THAT WILL keep the fissures apart LONGER...

aaaaaaaaaaaand.... the BB's need to be just a "hair" larger.. then "normal"

Not much.. just a fraction of a thousands... of an inch.. larger..

BUT.... REMEMBER.. this OIL around here is VOLOTILE... very thin OIL...

HIGH GRADE STUFF.. not that ole nasty TAR LIKE crap from Canada...:)

and will COME OUT OF THE SHALE.. easier....

SIMPLE... only takes $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Hey Aubry.. you listening  ??
