Brookside managing director David Prentice said: “We are very pleased to provide this important update on the Wolf Pack Well operations.
“Successfully drilling to this point and setting the intermediate casing string is a critical part of the overall drilling operations and significantly de-risks forward operations as we set about drilling and landing the curve and ultimately drilling the horizontal section.
“We are looking forward to providing further updates as we finish up the curve and land the well in the target bench of the Sycamore formation.”
About the Wolf Pack Well
The Wolf Pack Well is based in Stephens County, Oklahoma and is operated by Black Mesa Energy, LLC, a controlled subsidiary of Brookside.
Latshaw Rig 12 is conducting the drilling of the mid-length horizontal well, targeting the Sycamore Formation at an average depth of roughly 9,750 feet.
The well will be drilled to a projected total measured depth of around 17,750 feet, with close to 7,500 feet of the lateral section drilled in the Sycamore, which will subsequently be cased with production tubing to be perforated and treated to allow production of oil and rich gas.
