Re-Entry; A Second Lateral; Production Profile Of A QEP Well In The Blue Buttes Oil Field -- February 26, 2017

 Updates

April 27, 2017: update.

Original Post

 

Originally, this was a Three Forks well, lateral #1. Shortly thereafter, it was re-entered, and lateral #2 was drilled, targeting the middle Bakken. There were drilling problems with the second lateral and it was very, very short but the geologists opined in their report that it was still likely to be a great well. Re-entry rig began work September 27, 2007.

• 16652, 434, QEP, Levang 3-22H, Blue Buttes, t6/07; cum 230K 12/16;

The two laterals (the lower lateral was the first lateral drilled):

• Lateral 1: 368,600 lbs Carboprop open hole, test date, 9/5/2007; Three Forks (short lateral)
• Lateral 2: 98,600 lbs Carboprop open hole, test date, 2/27/2008; middle Bakken -- problems with drilling -- notice in graphic show short the middle Bakken lateral is;

No evidence this well was ever re-fracked (see FracFocus).

From a sundry form:  

The lower / lateral #1 (Three Forks) was IP's separately on 9/5/2007 543 bopd 597 mcfd 218 bwpd. The upper / lateral #2  (middle Bakken) was IP'd separately on 11/14/2007 269 bopd 253 mcfd 37 bwpd. The combined rate was IP's on 2/27/2008 434 bopd 312 mcfd 65 bwpd. The lower lateral is obstructed with proppant and precipitated salt and will be cleaned out and returned to production later in 2008.
