RE:RE:It a pump and dump !
Patience my Friend,
The well they are drilling is a 'wildcat' exploration well. They are drilling into the unknown. A well like this takes a lot more time and money to drill.
Why? Formation pressures are unknown. They don't want to burn down the rig.
Chances are, that they have 'mudded up' (increased drilling fluid density) in order to continue drilling while holding back oil/gas from entering the fluid column (in other words, offsetting higher formation pressures).
Drilling with high mud weights (drilling fluid weight in lbs/gal or kg/m3) decreases rate-of-penetration.
They have to pick casing points based on drillings cuttings and LWD tool response, etc, etc..
There are other factors.
Taking a long time to drill this type of well is not necessarily a bad thing at all. It may mean they have a tiger by the tail....
Cheers
