Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Sklar Exploration Co., based in Shreveport, La., has reached total depth at the first of two Norphlet oil tests in Santa Rose County, Fla. According to IHS Markit, #1 Polk Estate 13-5 was directionally drilled to an estimated depth of 15,500 ft in Section 13-5n-29w. A second planned test by Sklar is within 1 mile northwest at #1 Bates 2-2 in irregular Section 2. It has a planned depth of 15,500 ft. A discovery at either site would reopen Mount Carmel Field. Nearby production is at #39-3 Finlay Heirs in Section 39. The 1972 completion was tested flowing 960 bbl of 46-degree-gravity crude and 6.4 MMcf of gas per day from Norphlet at 15,260-80 ft. Two other wells in Mount Carmel Field, #632 T.M. Hendricks 27-3 and #36-1B Wolfe-Hendricks 36-1, were online from 1973 through 1995 with production coming from respective Norphlet zones at 15,046-90 ft and 15,054-85 ft. Current oil production in Jay Field is about two miles west of Sklar’s program. Quantum Resources Management operates the bulk of the field’s active wells.
