๐Ÿ’ก Operator Intent

๐Ÿ”ง Service Operator Relevance

Drilling & Directional Services
Rig H&P 515 is pre-selected and the well must be drilled back-to-back with another, creating a firm, immediate sequence of work.
Cementing
The approved well design features a cemented liner with a 'wet shoe', requiring precise cementing services for both the intermediate casing and production liner.
Earthwork & Pad Construction
The operator consolidated a multi-well program onto a single pad, requiring pad construction and earthwork to accommodate four wells back-to-back.
Surveying
A specific surveying contractor (4 Dimension Surveying & Consulting) prepared the well location plat, indicating a pre-existing relationship for pad and well path planning.
