💡 Operator Intent

Execute a multi-well pad development (Ravenclaw pad) with coordinated drilling and completion.

The file references multiple well names (Lovegood Federal 4595 42-19 #2BX, #3B, #4B, #5B) from the same pad location, and a waiver request cites Oasis as operator of the adjacent spacing unit.

Utilize a cost-effective toe initiation method for completions.

The wet shoe design description states 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.'

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Drilling & Directional Services

Anticipated spud date of June 7, 2025, with a 30-day drilling program; anti-collision statement indicates need for precise well planning and real-time surveying.

Completion & Stimulation Services
