Impact Of Rolla Federal Pad, #31704 - #31708 Inclusive -- March 7, 2017

This could turn into one of those long, involved notes.

To bring you up to speed, take a look at the earlier note on the Rolla Federal Wells; some of the newer wells are just starting to come off the confidential list. They are all going to be huge wells.

The first to be reported was this one, reported earlier today:

• 31704, 3,271, Whiting, Rolla Federal 31-3-1TFH, Three Forks 2nd Bench, 35 stages; 6.7 million lbs; Twin Valley, t9/16; cum 120K in four months; 

This is where #31704, a Three Forks second bench well, is located relative to a number of other "older," producing wells to the east.

Again, to repeat, all five wells on the 5-well pad (the pad with #31704) are going to be huge wells. For example, look at the initial production of #31704, again, a Three Forks second bench well.

Look at the production of these wells (and others) at this post (four of the five are still on the confidential list but will be coming off soon). All of these five wells have been completed.

What interests me is this: how did the completion of these five have wells affect the other five wells in the vicinity as noted in the graphic above?

The wells on the 5-well pad were fracked in August, 2016 (see FrackFocus).

What did the production look like for the five wells to the east during this period which encompasses either side of the frack dates of the wells on that 5-well pad? The wells are listed below, in order of nearest to farthest from #31704.

The distance from the 5-well pad is as much as 0.35 mile (1,850 feet) from the horizontal that is farthest away (#27283)
