Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Two horizontal Uteland Buttes (Lower Green River) exploratory tests in the Uinta Basin have been scheduled by Houston-based Newfield Exploration Co. The #9-35-4-2-1-12-7H Fitzgerald-UT and #9-35-4-2-2-11-1H Fitzgerald-UT will be drilled from a common drillpad in Section 35-3s-2w of Duchesne County, Utah. The #9-35-4-2-1-12-7H Fitzgerald-UT will be drilled to the southeast to 18,888 ft and will bottom in Section 12-4s-2w. The #9-35-4-2-2-11-1H Fitzgerald-UT will be drilled south-southeastward to 18,510 ft and will bottom in Section 11-4s-2w. True vertical depth of both wells is anticipated at 7,370 ft. Nearby production is to the southeast at the company’s#13-22-15-3-2W-MW Accawinna in Section 27-3s-2w, which was completed in 2014 initially flowing 637 bbl of oil, 15 Mcf of gas and 207 bbl of water per day. Production is from a lateral in the deeper Wasatch extending northward to 16,741 ft, 9,035 ft true vertical. It was tested following 38-stage fracturing between 9,204 and 16,567 ft.
