Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Completion details have been released on two Altamont Field-Uinta Basin completions by EP Energy Co. in Duchesne County, Utah. The discoveries were drilled from a pad in Section 33-2s-42. According to IHS Markit, #16-34-33-B4-4H Alpine Ranch flowed 329 bbl of oil, 193,000 cu ft of gas and 1,045 bbl of water per day from an apparent Uteland Buttes zone. It was tested after acidizing and fracture stimulation. The flowing casing pressure was gauged at 4,049 psi on a 12/64-inch choke. The well was initially expected to target Wasatch and it was drilled to 20,563 ft. The lateral bottomed 2 miles to the west in Section 33-2s-4w. The true vertical depth is 10,174 ft. The parallel #16-34-33-B4-5H Alpine Ranch was drilled to 20,390 ft (10,109 ft true vertical). It initially flowed 257 bbl of crude, 202,000 cu ft of gas and 1,151 bbl of water per day from acid- and fracture-treated perforations in Uteland Buttes. Gauged on a 12/24-inch coke, the flowing casing pressure was 3,980 psi. EP Energy is based in Houston.
