Heard a couple interesting rumors from two semi reliable sources, but not able to confirm. Perhaps someone here can confirm the truth of these rumors.
(1) Anadarko had some mechanical problems while fracking on 24-5S-64W. They were only able to frack six or seven stages.
(2) Anadarko has sold or in the process of selling their Arapahoe interest to Conoco. I checked Anadarko’s drilling permits which indicates no activity on any permitted locations. They have not applied for any type of permit since Aug. 2012.
On the other hand, Conoco has been very active after showing up late in Arapahoe:

Conoco has two Pending Drilling Permits since Jan. 2013:

Plus, Conoco just applied for Location Permit on 2/8/2013, Tebo 33 33-4S-64W
