Mississippi Limestone Emerging As Top-Flight Horizontal Liquids Play

This published well over a year ago, and tells some about 10,000 plus producing wells. I have read a couple of different places a good horiz well can pump 20,000 bpd and the best wells can go 50,000 bpd and over, and the technology is yet to come for even better results. It all makes sense. 40 years ago everyone in the industry would have laughed at over 5-600, but that is vertical and horiz was unthought of even. All of those hundreds of rigs are not being parked out there just for cheap parking, and the Cushing - Port Arthur extension has to be filled up by Northern Okla at Cushing on opening day. The oil companies know exactly what they are doing and where we are going with it.
