RE:Taking a tollDfly, I know that formation if it's the same one we ran into in northern Kuwait 18 km from the Iraq border. It's a real SOB. Burned down a rig the year before I got there. Pulling out of the hole it came at them hard.
Yeah didn't want to say too much in response to your post. So carbonates? Not sandstone. This might be the first carbonate well in the basin? You mentioned aluminum. I checked out carbonate types. Dawsonite is a sodium, aluminum carbonate. I don't know what significance that has because I'm not a geochemist. But interconnected vugs and caverns is a fantastic thing if that's what it is. I can see drilling away, everything normal, then all of a sudden you got a raging bull coming at you. The rig is probably on high alert.
