Cost optimization through phased rig use and service waivers

↳ Request for drilling suspension to use smaller rig for surface casing and waiver for open hole logs
Environmental and operational efficiency in lateral drilling

↳ Switch to saltwater mud in lateral section and no cuttings pit
Adaptive drilling to maximize reservoir exposure

↳ Multiple target changes in lateral and real-time geological adjustments

Rig services

Immediate opportunity for rig mobilization post-suspension approval, with rig change indicating demand for specialized equipment
