Odyssey Reports Max & Martha Gill #1 Well at Pelatachie in Production
March 11 2008 - 10:50AM
Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA (FRANKFURT: YQN) advises that it has
completed the recently drilled Max & Martha Gill #1 well in
Pelahatchie Field in the prolific 11,300 ft. Hosston Formation.
Testing with swab rig initially resulted in estimated fluid entry
rates exceeding 200 barrels of oil per day, which is the indicated
rate that the well could be pumped. Placed on a 12/64s size
wellhead choke, the well has been flowing naturally at the rate of
80-115 barrels of oil daily with no formation water indicated and
flowing tubing pressure of 100 to 180 psi. Presently the drilling
location is having all drilling mats, etc. removed and the site
graveled so that a pumping unit can be installed once the well has
finished flowing naturally.
Drilled to 11,500 ft. subsurface in Sec 7 T5N R5E, the Gill well
encountered numerous potential productive zones beginning at the
Tuscaloosa depositions in the 7000 ft. depth through the multiple
Hosston formations at in the 11,000 ft. zones. These stacked "pay
zones" will now become future offset developmental drilling
targets.
The particular zone presently perforated yielded over 340,000
barrels in the 1960's from three adjacent wells to the north and
west, and considerable oil from other wells in the field. The oil
is high gravity (50 degrees) sweet crude which brings top product
prices in the market, presently $90 to $100 per barrel.
