I just joined the forum primarily because I saw a need to disseminate some reality into the discussion. The well you mention above (Plymouth-Sebranek 1-3H) recorded first sales November 2011. Through August 2012 the well has sold 3661 BO and 3,300 Mcfg, averaging 23 BOPD the last 2 months. There is tremendous hyperbole associated with this area and IP’s are VERY unreliable and not typically indicative of a well’s near-term performance, much less long-term. For perspective, assuming $950 per acre on a 640 ac horizontal unit (some are 320’s), acreage costs would approximate $600,000. Drilling and completion costs are also quite variable but $4,000,000 would be a good ballpark figure. Given these costs and assuming a net revenue of 81.25% this well would need to sell over $5,500,000 in products to payout. There are also associated lifting costs, but for purposes of this example we’ll ignore them. If we use the $90.00 oil and $3.00 gas, the well has grossed $339,000, or net to the working interest of $275,000 before gross production taxes (and operating expenses). The bottom line: This well will NEVER payout. I pose these facts because I see this activity on a widespread basis as a flash-in-the-pan. There will be areas which are economically viable, but the vast majority of the “play” is unsustainable. Acreage prices reflected herein are equally unsustainable, so a wait-and-see attitude isn’t always a wise choice. I think the OCC information disclosed is informative but broad strokes in terms of extrapolating lease bonus values should be considered wisely and as such. I would like to chime in periodically unless the forum would prefer nothing but roses.
