Drilling Activity Summary

Description

IHS Markit reported that Omaha-based Patrick Webb Oil LLC plans to re-enter and deepen an oil well in Section 17-7s-8e White County, Ill. The #1 F. Douglas will be deepened to 4,795 ft and is targeting oil in Fort Payne. The original hole was drilled and completed in an openhole zone in Aux Vases at 2,924-34 ft flowing 250 bbl of crude per day. It was drilled to 2,934 ft and is in Roland Consolidated Field. The Illinois Basin reservoir produces from Pennsylvanian and Mississippian pays, with the deepest wells in the field yielding crude from Ullin (Mississippian) at 4,050 ft. Pioneer Oil Co. also has a deeper pool wildcat drilling program in the county about 10 miles to the northeast — a 2010 completion at #1-36 Ackerman Trust in Section 36-5s-8e was drilled in mid-2019 to 4,550 ft. Pioneer has permitted several additional 4,550-ft tests in the area, with oil objectives in Chouteau Lime (Lower Mississippian).
