Random Update On An Incredible Halcon Well, McGregory Buttes -- July 23, 2014

Over at "Things To Follow Up On," here's the update on an incredible Halcon well:

#20879 has two laterals, drilled at separate times. They have different names: -1H and -2H but yet carry the same permit number, #20879.

• 20879, 2,709/A/IA, Bruin/HRC, Fort Berthold 147-94-1A-12-2H, McGregory Buttes, t1/14; cum 486K 10/18; back off-line 9/18;

From the well file back in early 2013:

Frac Notes: Plug & Perf - 30 stages planned. At Stage 2, a 2,000 psi drop was observed, previous well operator, Petro-Hunt, directed contractor HES to repair sand conveyor belt, no ball seated at Stage 3. Job was shutdown by P-H anticipating a casing or tool string failure. Well to be TA'd by current operator until final cost of casing repair is determined. In March and April 2013, well flowed naturally for 4 and 13 days, respectively, and is no longer flowing. 

From the well file while drilling the lateral: gas levels at this point in the lateral were already quite [high], often averaging over 3,000 units and sometimes exceeding 9,000 units.... but was probably due to "bad" gas detector. Later, gas readings were down to 600 units with burst flares of 10 - 15 feet.
