How long to drill and complete

Comment by Sonny7 on Mar 25, 2011 12:42pm
Barring any problems Ross, I'd say you can think about 60 days to drill and case this well and completeing it will mainly depend on the completion program as per Legacy (30 days?). The final design of the completion program will be tailored to the actual well characteristics as it was drilled and logged. I'm unfamiliar with the area so maybe someone here may have better insight and a ...more

Any ballpark figures on how far into the drilling process it will take before they know what they got with this well?

   "Any ballpark figures on how far into the drilling process it will take before they know what they got with this well?"We need a look at the drilling program to answer that. They could drill vertically to measure pay thickness through the zones then come above the zone to then sidetrack to go horizontal through the pay, length of horizontal section being key to ...more

60 days would be streching it!! id be willing to bet it will be 30-40 at the most unless problems.  murphy does it in under a month nexen was a month argosy just over a month. they will have a good idea when the go sideways in the payzone. they will head directional id say 10-15 days then run intermediate casing.

added a little more today!  to bad we have so many shares ost. could you imagine where we would be if half or 1/3 the shares!  its a good thing our partner is caughing up 80% of the cash! i heard gsy last well cost close to 5m bucks! how much money do we have in the till?

Here is the well ticket for the CPG 14-7 well.  Drilling time to get to 3166 m of total hole was 30 days.  This well was spud on July 24, 2010 and rig released on August 25, 2010.  It was cased with 7" intermediate casing to 2070 m and then drilled HZ with a 4-1/2" liner in the HZ leg from 2031 - 3161 m.The BWD well should take at least this long if not more as it is being ...more

I would suggest that surface casing should be set now, intermediate casing set at the top of the pay and production casing set at final total measured depth. Time to drill is also dependant on hole sizes. 30 to 40 days would suit me. Show me the money!!
Comment by Sonny7 on Mar 25, 2011 2:50pm
Good post, pricecheck!!I heard that the surface location for this well was on top of a hill and just off a high grade road so we should be uneffected by break up.....there should be losts of gravel there too

Whoa! It just took a 5 cent hit. Why is that? somebody bailing for the weekend?
Comment by Bob56 on Mar 25, 2011 3:23pm
Can someone post how many shares Clarus Securities has bought / sold in the last four days?  Should be interesting.
Comment by brujacman on Mar 27, 2011 6:04pm
If anyone wants a good laugh check out how many ignores this person has achieved in the 2 days they have been a SH member. tsxadventure5 you are an embarassement to anyone who would like to be known as an actual investor. Furthermore this post is on countless boards so I guess we do need to give you credit for at least changing the ticker symbol on each post so it pertains to that company. As for ...more

Here is the last week of trading. While 7.2 million shares may seem like a lot, you must remember that BWD has a gigantic number of shares outstanding at over 274 million. So Clarus buying $1.6 million of stock in this thing is somewhat meaningless isn't it? House Bought $Val Ave Sold $Val Ave Net $Net 24 Clarus  ...more  
Comment by Bob56 on Mar 28, 2011 2:35pm
1.6 million bought on the open market by Clarus last week is a definite vote of confidence.  Retailers looking at the play from the outside in don't realize the bulk of Bowood shares were acquired by investors and insiders below .25 cents & at the .25 cent pp.  So while we have alot of shares outstanding, when this region starts to take off, the actual investors and longs here ...more

I'm curious to know where you got the number of shares at 274 million.  SH snapshot says 186 million; still a lot, but a market cap of $90 million is a lot less than $135 million... And, more easily moved...
Comment by pricecheckon2 on Mar 29, 2011 4:01pm
Page 16 of their current presentation lists 274 mm shares out with fully diluted at 290 mm.  I am guessing you are looking at the Q3-11 capitalization table which may not have included the $22mm financing done at .25 a share in September-10.If the deal had not closed by the end of the quarter it would have been a subsequent event and therefore won't show up until they file their Q4-10 ...more

Yep, I bet you're right, thanks.  I was looking at the Stockhouse snapshot, but their numbers are probably dated.  Here's hoping Legacy knows what they're doing...
