Management Comments
"Since Osage took operational control in Logan County we have
reiterated that the second half of 2014 would be a time of great
change for our shareholders. We ended the first half of this year
producing about 425 barrels of oil equivalent net to Osage from 43
non-operated wells. With only four Osage-operated wells added to
that total, we have more than tripled our daily production to 1,392
barrels of oil equivalent, far in excess of the target year-end
exit rate that we promised publicly just 45 days ago," stated Kim
Bradford, Chairman and CEO.
"Our Mississippian well, while still early in its production
life, is well ahead of the type curve and promises to be an
exceptional well with early payback. Our Woodford well is without a
doubt the best Woodford well drilled in southern Logan County, and
better by far than any Woodford well drilled by any offset operator
outside of Devon Energy. The impact of this is enormous to the
Osage shareholder because it proves our assertion that we can drill
multiple Mississippian wells and multiple Woodford wells in every
section that we operate," stated Jack Zedlitz, VP Corporate
Development.
"The quality of our rock has never been seriously questioned,
but it took the right operational team with the right philosophy to
bring everything to fruition," stated Greg Franklin, Osage’s Vice
President of Exploration and Senior Geologist.
"Looking beyond these exceptional results, we already have two
more Mississippian wells drilled which we will frac later this
month, and our next two drilling pads under construction to move
our rig to sequentially. We have built a team of exceptional
individuals to execute this plan and our results speak for
themselves. Even with the high level of production that we are
seeing, our primary focus is on cutting drilling and completion
costs, which is crucial in this volatile commodity price
environment. While these are still the early days of our
development program, we have put exclamation points on our geology,
our team, and our ability to deliver results, all to the benefit of
our shareholders," concluded Kim Bradford.
