💡 Operator Intent

Minimize logging costs by waiving open hole logs and relying on offsetting well data.

Waiver request citing Winfield Federal 1-23H for formation tops, with GR-CBL as alternative.

Extend operational window through permit renewal to maintain development continuity.

Renewal request for permit expiring 12/18/2025, approved with all conditions applied.

Optimize completion efficiency with wet shoe liner design for wireline perforating.

Intentional over-displacement of cement to create uncemented annulus for economic toe initiation.

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Directional drilling and surveying services

Anticipated start March 1, 2024, requires immediate mobilization of crews and equipment for horizontal trajectory.

Regulatory compliance and permitting

Permit renewal expiring 12/18/2025, creating opportunity for extension services ahead of deadline.

Completion and cementing services

Wet shoe design implies need for specialized liner cementing and wireline perforating post-drilling.
