RE:RE:MaintenanceThe geologic section they are drilling has never been previously drilled....they have no clue as to pressures, density, mud weights etc., so, am fairly certain they are taking extra precautions while drilling and that is why it is taking so long to drill this well.
Don't forget they have the upper part of this hole behind casing, so the risk of losing the entire well is minimal.
Also, on the first well they did have measuralbe gas/condensate to surface. Probably flowing while drilling. And the "show" section is secure.......behind pipe.
Do not think they have testing equipment on location seeing as these two wells are stratigraphic tests, not oil/gas test. Basically, they werre not prepared for what they found. Hopefully they are securing the equip necessary to flow test these two wells.
