Jump In Production, BR, CCU Boxcar, #17756 -- July 21, 2017

Idle chatter regarding a well with jump in production about six-and-a-half years after the original frack.

This well was originally drilled/fracked/completed back in September, 2009. Note the incredible jump in production in April, 2016. It was obviously re-fracked but there is no sundry form showing a re-frack and there is no data over at FracFocus. There is a sundry form regarding a flare in 2016, but only because there was a minor mishap at the time.

There are suggestions coming out of the Bakken that the well progression in the Bakken is this:

• original frack
• "mini-frack" at five to seven years after original  frack
•  full re-frack at 10 to 15 years after original frack

I cannot take credit for coming up with this "progression." A reader sent me a link some months ago that put me onto this. The link was to a "proposal" made by an oil service company in the Bakken that was released in 2015. 

If the "mini-frack" was "simply" a workover, there might not be any need for a sundry form, or any need to send data to FracFocus. I don't know. Just idle chatter. But I am coming across any number of examples of where it appears a well has clearly been re-fracked and FracFocus has no data. Maybe the paperwork "is in the mail." Or maybe we could call this a "no-sundry-form-work-over" (NSFWO).

Disclaimer: this is simply idle chatter. Do not quote me on any of this. I may be missing something obvious or misreading something. If this is important to you, go to the source.
