Murex' Borstad Wells In West Tioga -- March 27, 2022

Updates

March 30, 2022:  from a reader; the reader's thoughts and my thoughts --

• Patterson 280 rigging is coming down today
• all wells drilled to depth
• the rig was a walking rig
• back and forth, the rig drilled the four wells to KOP
• once KOP reached in all four wells, rig walked back to complete the laterals
• some of this is fact; some conjectural; explains everything

Original Post

From a reader:

If you want to solve a real head scratcher figure out why Patterson 280 has been on the Murex Borstad 3 well pad all winter. I may be wrong but the way the rig is oriented on location leads me to believe they could still be on the first hole.

I drive past it at least 2x per day and there is little activity and there's always pipe in the derrick like they're tripping.

I'll come back to this one later. I don't have any news, but I need to spend some time on it. Later, some data:
