Drilling Rigs

💡 Operator Intent

To develop two adjacent 1920-acre DSUs efficiently using a single pad and sequential drilling campaigns.

Drilling plan statement explains change from separate pads to a single pad to 'reduce waste' and that all four listed wells 'will be drilled back to back.'

To maintain tight operational control and data confidentiality during drilling.

Drilling program states 'THIS IS A TIGHT HOLE' restricting access to MPC personnel and contract personnel only, and that partner communication will be coordinated from Houston.

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Drilling & Directional Services

Four wells are planned for back-to-back drilling from a single pad, with the first two wells (including this one) mandated to be drilled back-to-back. This represents a concentrated, sequential drilling campaign.

Pad Construction & Earthworks

A new consolidated pad for 4 wells has been designed and surveyed, with a recent surface agreement amendment (July 2026) enabling it. Construction is imminent ahead of the drilling sequence.

Waste Handling & Disposal

A specific disposal facility (Smokey Butte Disposal) is already contracted for cuttings from all four wells on the pad, indicating need for coordinated waste hauling from the start of operations.

Completion & Stimulation Services

The well design includes a specialized 'wet shoe' liner requiring a specific plug-and-perf isolation procedure for the first stage, indicating a need for precise completion services post-drilling.
