💡 Operator Intent

Maximize lateral length within spacing unit using engineered completion techniques

West setback exception granted based on production liner with wet shoe design; first perf point carefully placed relative to boundaries

Centralize production facilities off-pad to optimize pad space

Note states wells flowline to CTB on William West pad; operator assertion confirms well and production facility not on same pad

Proactive regulatory compliance and competitor notification

Affidavit shows formal notification to Oasis Petroleum per NDIC Order 31848 for wells traversing adjacent units

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Cementing & Liner Services

Wet shoe installation and ability to frac out shoe is critical for setback exception; specialized cementing required for production liner

Surveying & Well Placement

Complex pad with 5 wells requiring precise placement; boundary-relative perforation points need accurate execution

Waste Management

Closed mud system with cuttings disposal to pre-selected vendor creates immediate hauling opportunity

Regulatory Coordination

Mandatory pre-construction contact with named NDIC inspector creates timing dependency for all site work
