Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Denver-based SM Energy Co. has scheduled five extended-reach horizontal exploratory tests – four in Frontier and one in Shannon – on a common drillpad in the southwestern flank of the Powder River Basin. According to IHS Markit, the Converse County, Wyo., drillpad will be in Section 14-38n-76w. The #3876-14-23-2FH One Nineteen-Federal will be drilled in Frontier south-southwestward to 22,978 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 23-38n-76w; #3876-11-2-1FH Raider-Federal will be drilled in Frontier northward to 22,785 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 2-38n-76w; #3876-14-23-1FH General Scott-Federal will be drilled in Frontier southward to 22,633 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 23-38n-76w; #3876-14-23-1SH Holiday-Federal will be drilled in Shannon southward to 20,686 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 23-38n-76w and #3876-11-2-2FH Jupiter-Federal will be drilled in Frontier north-northwestward to 22,855 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 2-38n-76w. Nearby production is from an SM Energy extended-reach horizontal Frontier producer – #3876-1-12-1FH Cannon-Federal Section 1-38n-76w. It initially flowed 1.245 Mbbl of 40-degree-gravity oil, 1.515 MMcf of gas and 2.18 Mbbl of water per day. Production is from a horizontal lateral in Frontier extending from 12,735 ft southward to 22,424 ft at a bottom-hole location in Section 12-38n-76w. The true vertical depth is 12,470 ft. It was tested on a 40/64-in. choke following 21-stage fracture stimulation between 12,770 and 22,232 ft.
