Brookside Energy Limited (ASX:BRK) has established commercial production and sales from its Wolf Pack Well during flow-back operations in the United States’ Anadarko Basin.
Early rates are very encouraging according to Brookside, with the well producing into the company’s permanent production facilities which are now fully operational.
Material volumes of oil and gas have already been sold, with sales being established from the well in a record three months from the spud date.
Oil is being trucked to a nearby pipeline terminal and gas is being transported via pipeline to an Enerfin gas processing facility.
Brookside Managing Director David Prentice said he was delighted to be able to report on yet another wonderful operational outcome, with production and first sales established on the first well in the company’s Phase Two development drilling program.
Prentice said: “Once again I would like to thank the Black Mesa team as well as our team of contractors and service companies – without their care and diligence we would not be able to achieve these significant milestones.
“Three months from spud to first sales is a tremendous result and we look forward to bringing further news from Wolf Pack as it continues to clean-up and production increases.”
The Wolf Pack Well is a Black Mesa Energy, LLC (a controlled subsidiary of Brookside) operated well that was drilled by Latshaw Rig 12 in Stephens County, Oklahoma.
The well was drilled as a mid-length horizontal well targeting the Sycamore Formation at an average depth of about 9,750 feet.
The well was drilled to a total measured depth of about 17,260 feet, with about 7,500 feet of lateral section drilled in the Sycamore that was cased with production tubing to be perforated and treated to allow production of oil and rich gas.
