Drilling Activity Summary
Description
Ultra Petroleum Corp. tested four new Pinedale Anticline wells in Sublette County, Wyo. Two of the prospects were directionally drilled from a common pad in Section 34-32n-109w. The 13,850-ft. #5D1-34D Mesa flowed 17 million cu. ft. of gas per day from Lance between 8,405 and 13,764 ft. after a 26-stage fracture-stimulation with a flowing casing pressure of 3,300 psi. Thirty ft. south, Houston-based Ultra gauged an initial flow rate of 15.8 million cu. ft. of gas daily at #6B1-34D Mesa after a 27-stage fracturing. It was drilled to a total depth of 13,714 ft. and perforated in the Lance at 8,092-13,683 ft. To the north, #14B1-27D Mesa, in Section 27-32n-109w, was tested at 8,398-13,857 ft. in Lance flowing 16.1 million cu. ft. of gas per day with 4,250-psi flowing casing pressure. This 13,910-ft. directional venture was fractured in 27 stages. On the same pad 10 ft. to the west, gas flowed at an initial rate of 14.1 million cu. ft. daily at #13C1-27D Mesa. This well was directionally drilled to 13,915 ft. and tested in Lance between 8,192 and 13,886 ft.
