Later, 9:29 p.m. CT: most likely explanation for increased production? A new, more efficient pump optimized for very deep wells.
Original Post
A reader wondered why this well continues to flare all natural gas. It was first drilled/stimulated/producing in late 2011. There was a small jump in production (3x production) this past summer but there is nothing in the file report to explain why. FracFocus shows no re-frac but does note the 2011 frack (which is pretty good -- I don't usually find frack reports prior to 2012 in FracFocus. I don't think work-over rigs are generally noted in the file report.
There is a form in the file report that this well meets stripper well status, dated December 27, 2016.
Some readers would be interested if anyone has more information on this well:
- why the jump in production
- why the well has never captured any natural gas (I assume it is because of the remoteness of the well, and laying a pipeline at this point would not be economical)
