Random Update Of A Chesapeake/CLR Tyler Well In Billings County; Just Taken Off-Line

  • 16219, IA/150, CLR/Chesapeake, Tracy Mountain 2-16, a Tyler well, vertical, depth of 8,281 feet; fracked with about 60,000 lbs proppant; Billings County, t8/06; cum 105K 2/14; taken off-line 2/14;
Note: this well would have been very inexpensive to drill. It was a vertical well to only 8,000 feet. It has produced over 100,000 bbls of oil in just a few years. It will be interesting to see why this well was taken off-line.

December 10, 2008: operator change from Chesapeake to Continental Resources.

For The Archives: Primary Petroleum Is No Longer Primary Petroleum; Air America Radio Personality Ed Schultz To Drift Away

On the blog there has been an occasional reference to Primary Petroleum (PETEF.PK). Ever wonder what happened to Primary Petroleum?

The press release:
Primary Petroleum Corporation (TSX VENTURE:PIE)(PETEF) ("Primary" or the "Corporation"), and Keek Inc. ("Keek"), a private Ontario corporation, announced today that they have entered into an arm's length letter of intent dated November 15, 2013. Keek is a private global social video company that enables its users to create up to a 36 second video message (a "keek") and share it with the Keek community.
Yes, the Primary Petroleum company sold all its oil and gas assets, and was "bought" by Keek. Keek had the plan; Primary Petroleum had the cash.

At the time the deal was closed, MarketWatch reported:
Keek is a global interactive video content network which at a click of a button allows users to distribute its content in real time. A Keek is a short video (up to 36 seconds) and 111 characters of accompanying text that can be enabled thru the web, IOS, Android, Window 8 and BlackBerry 10 mobile platforms. Users can interact on Keek directly with other users through "keekbacks", the platform's unique ability to respond to a keek (short video) with a keek. These interactions can occur in either a public or private view. Private sessions can include up to 35 others. 
The Financial Post also provided a bit of background.

Before the reverse takeover, The Wall Street Journal reported:
Primary is a junior oil and gas company engaged in exploration and development activities in NW Montana and currently holds substantial land positions in both an unconventional and conventional oil play. The Company's mandate is to continue to acquire strategic opportunities in the Sedimentary Basins of the Western United States and Canada and seek out qualified industry partners to assist in the exploitation and development.
I never invested in Primary Petroleum, though I remember thinking about it at the time. And now it's an internet video content provider.

I guess it just sort of drifted away.

Drift Away, Rod Stewart

Also drifting away:
Less than a week after Air America Radio refugee Randi Rhodes signed off with her last broadcast, libtalker Ed Schultz announced that he too is ending his radio show.
The 3-day Memorial Day weekend turned out even better than I could have imagined. LOL.

Update On A KOG Well Not Fracked For Two Years

Back on June 20, 2013, I posted something I said "was not ready for prime time." Now, we know the rest of the story.

Go back to this link to re-familiarize yourself with this well:
  • 18987, 223, KOG, Two Shields Butte 14-21-16-2HS, t4/11; cum 282K 4/13; 
There are four wells on the pad that this well is on. I will only look at this well, assuming a similar story for the others.

What surprised me was this well (and a neighboring KOG well) had some of the worst IPs I had ever seen, and was curious.

Here's the entire production history:

1. Note the poor production history for the first two years. It turns out the well was drilled in late 2010, but was not fracked until some time later.

2. The production one sees between 12/10 and 12/12 was from an unfracked well.

3. At the time of the original post, the spacing was still "ICO" -- to be determined.

4. We now know the spacing is 640 acres. Interestingly, however, it is a long lateral but the spacing is the east half of section 16 (320 acres) and the east half of section 21 (320 acres) of 149-92.

5. The well was taken off-line November, 2012, and not brought back on-line until March, 2013. It was during this period that the well was fracked. This well has produced almost 235,000 bbls of oil since it was fracked, and the spacing was only 640 acres.

6. Although not a great well before it was fracked, nonetheless, it produced as much as some fracked wells in other parts of the Basin.

7. The IP of the unfracked well was 223 as noted above. What the scout ticket does not tell us is that the IP of the well when it was finally fracked was 2,061, 27 stages, 4 million lbs of sand.
