Random Look At Two Slawson Wells -- Part II -- March 23, 2018

Part I is here.

This is Part II.

Part III is here.

Disclaimer: in a long note like this and the one in Part I, there will be typographical and factual errors. Facts, comments, and opinions are interspersed and hard to separate or discern. There are a lot of digressions. There is no hidden agenda and no "fake news" -- at least no attempt to post "fake news." I appreciate any fact checking. If this is important to you, go to the source.

The wells under discussion:

• 19207, 613, Slawson, Vagabond 1-27H, Van Hook, t4/11; cum 358K 1/18;
• 19208, 800, Slawson, Water Moccasin 4-34-TFH, Van Hook, t4/11; cum 324K 1/18;

In Part I, we discussed these wells "in a vacuum" -- not a Dyson vacuum but in a vacuum in the sense that we did not discuss what occurred when Slawson drilled and fracked six long horizontals that ran alongside these two short laterals.

Here are the graphics:

Three of the long laterals (#23769, #21453, and #23768) are farther to the west of the short laterals under discussion I will ignore them in this post.

Test dates for the other three long laterals (#27240, #27238, and #27237) were in November, 2014 (11/14) which means they were fracked shortly before then.

Let's look at production profiles for the short laterals during this period:
