💡 Operator Intent

Optimize completion costs through wet shoe design to enable wireline perforating instead of more expensive methods

Wet shoe configuration description stating it 'allows the operator to pump-down the first stage perforating guns on wireline, avoiding the more expensive option of perforating on tubing or with a tractor'
Minimize logging costs by seeking waivers for standard porosity and resistivity logs

Waiver requested in PROPOSED LOGS section for porosity/resistivity logs, requiring separate sundry filing
Aggressive pad development with multiple wells (2BX, 3B, 4BX) from same location

Multiple well paths shown on plats, affidavit covering three wells, and coordinated permitting for all wells on pad

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Environmental & Regulatory Consulting

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service comments require species surveys and Class III cultural survey per State Historical Society; immediate need for environmental assessment services

Directional Drilling & Anti-collision Services

Anti-collision statement details specific procedures (1.2 separation factor, gamma ray signatures, survey frequency); TAKTIKAL DIRECTIONAL already engaged but indicates complex well planning needs

Solid Waste Disposal/Hauling

List of 8 pre-approved licensed disposal facilities for drill cuttings; operator will use 'closest available facility' - opportunity for waste haulers serving those facilities

Pad Construction & Earthwork

Pre-construction inspection required with NDIC Field Inspector; detailed earthwork quantities provided (59,600 CY excavation); construction cannot start until inspection completed
