Howdy: Just received a call from Micro Seismic about installing a subsurface seismic monitor (400’) on the property to determine the range of formation shift for wells being fraced within a 27-mile radius. Requires lease of some kind and may involve small payment. Any comments or experience from the group regarding this request would be appreciated? Dave S

Good info Buzz. Rumor mill has it that Clayton Williams throttled back from 11 to 5 while they re-evaluate the pressure levels for fracing in the Wolfbone trend. Apparently, it’s a complex mix of pressure settings and they have their long hairs looking at the data to determine the magic number.

On a side note - Does anyone remember Wackers Dept store or Al’s hamburger stand in Pecos? Two fond memories from my childhood. My grandmother lived on Bois D Arc Street near the water tower.

Buzz - Any idea what this means:

“Ongoing 5-well program”??

And the area of interest… dimensions mentioned start at the City of Pecos???

TIA

I listened to replay of CW’s 1-Q earnings call Wed-4/25… some highlights (southern Reeves):

- area of interest 17 miles long x 12 miles wide

- $219m capex in Reeves

- 57 wells spudded; 50 vertical/7 horizontal

- 37 producing

- 12 waiting on completion, connection, etc.

- Ongoing 5-well program

- Re: Chesapeake leases, completed 44 ‘earning wells’… meeting our obligation for the 2nd year to 3-1-13

- vertical Wolfbone wells intercepting 5 pay zones (sometimes 7); gross pay 3,500’

- 80 bbl/d IP; 175-200,000 EUR

- vertical well cost down to $3.8m, heading lower

- lower 2 zones overpressured

- 3 horizontals drilled in three different zones (no further information)

- continue to haul oil, pipeline ready soon

- first time gas went to sales was this week

- 60,000 acres leased/still leasing

Hope this helps – Later – Buzz

Kreg - for the near term, they plan on 5 rigs running spending $219 million this year… something like 50 wells per year ($4 million each). Going by where they’ve been drilling, I would say the area starts a little south of Pecos, extending, generally, south-southwest. I recall Clayton saying the drilling time for a vertical well is down to 40-something days. Later – Buzz
