July 23, 2015: see first comment; the answer may be -- fracking in neighboring well(s); halo effect. The original post was fairly short; I have added a lot to it at the bottom. It remains a mystery but we know part of the answer.
Original Post
I don't know; maybe a reader does, but probably not re-fracked:
- 21333, 108, Lime Rock Resources/OXY USA, Raphael Stroh 2-13-24H-143-97, Fayette oil field, 20 stages; 2 million lbs, 12K in April; down to 2K in June; t2/12; back up to 5K in May,2015; cum 229K 8/16; only 16 days in 8/16;

A couple notes:
- for whatever reason OXY USA took this well off-line, they did so during the slump in oil prices, doing something to increase production
- I don't think it was a re-frack but the amount of water coming back up in April, 2015, suggests it might have been re-fracked
- the fact that there was some new flaring suggests it might have been re-fracked
Update: after receiving the first update, I went back and checked some neighboring wells. On the same pad, but running in the opposite direction, this well has a similar production profile (but not an increase in monthly production as noted in the Raphael Stroh well:
21334, 755, OXY USA, Kenneth Stroh 2-12-1H-143-97, Cabernet, t5/12; cum 197K 5/15:

The third well on this pad is currently SI/NC:
- 29600, SI/NC, OXY USA, Kenneth Stroh 3-12-1H-143-97, Cabernet, Three Forks, 1280-acre; it looks like the horizontal will be a bit shorter than a typical "long lateral";
My hunch: putting everything together: this well, #29600, was recently stimulated and it affected the neighboring Raphael Stroh well, but did not affect the other well on the pad which ran the opposite direction.
Now to look at the next well over, to the east:
- 28757, 633, OXY USA, Kenneth Stroh 4-12-1H-143-97, Cabernet, 40 stages, 3.5 million lbs; stimulated 12/19/2014; t2/15; cum 43K 5/15;

This is very interesting. This well was stimulated the very same month (December 19, 2015) that the Raphael Stroh and the Kenneth Stroh #2 were take off-line. It's hard to believe that a well this far away from the Raphael Stroh would have any effect, but if the Kenneth Stroh #3 (#29600) was not stimulated at this time, then .... We will have to wait to see when Kenneth Stroh #3 was stimulated.
Note: this note was done quickly; it was not proofread. I may have misread something; thre ma be factual and typographical errors. This post is still in progress. If this information is imporant to you go to the source.
Where we stand now: it appears production jumped a bit on the Raphael Stroh due to some neighoring fracking but we don't know which well. We might (should?) have the answer when the frack data/stimulation date of #29600, Kenneth Stroh #3 becomes available.
