Regulatory / Permitting

💡 Operator Intent

To minimize regulatory burdens by obtaining waivers for logs and waste containers

Sundry notices requesting waivers for open hole logs and filter sock containers, justified by offset well data and phased operations

To adapt completion design for pump-down perforating without fracing capability

Sundry for change in completion method specifying wet shoe and 100' setback to enable specific stimulation technique

To manage operational delays strategically, such as hot stacking the rig

Rig hot stacked for 8 days post-curve completion, allowing time before lateral drilling resumption

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Drilling equipment repair and replacement

Motor failure on 2025-08-18 created immediate need for BHA components, with drilling paused until 2025-08-19

Completion and stimulation services

Revised completion method approved 2025-07-23 signals upcoming demand for pump-down perforating and cemented liner services

Waste management and environmental services

Waiver limiting filter sock container to drill-out phase (post-2025-08-17) indicates timed opportunity for waste handling during completions
