3702 PSI wellhead Pressure

Reservoir pressure is directly related to flowing pressure and also directly related to wellhead pressure. So at ths high shut-in wellhead pressure, it would be very reasonable to assume that the reservour is highly porous and permeable with high reservoir pressure. So we can produce the well for several months or years before deploying pumpjacks!.

Why would you suggest that the reservoir is highly porous ?  In my opinion,  it would appear to indicatelow permeability.  What temperature would you expect bottom hole ?

Porosity is high and among the highest in the area (>13%). Check the Sterlings Energy filing. Also, the viscousity is among the lowest (40 API) and so light oil. The sulphur content is among the smallest in the area (0.6%). These data are from Table 2 in the Sterling filings.

Why are oilmen so interested in the porosity and the permeability of rocks? Quite simply because, for a rock to contain large quantities of oil or gas, it must have good porosity (sufficient empty space where the hydrocarbons go), and good permeability (so that the oil can move rapidly when the time comes to pump them in order to exploit them). A rock that posses both a good porosity and ...more
