Greater Sooner Holdings, Inc. Details Operational Excellence at Webb County Sidetrack Well
2006-09-19 09:00 ET - News Release
HOUSTON -- (Business Wire) -- Sept. 19, 2006
Greater Sooner Holdings, Inc., (OTC:GSNH) (www.greatersoonerholdings.com) announces the team of operational experts selected to drill and log of the LOMT #1 Sidetrack well in Webb County, Texas. The Operator has awarded the business to the following service providers:
-- Halliburton's (NYSE:HAL) Baroid Fluid Services division is providing the necessary drilling fluids and muds.
-- Platinum Production Testing Service will execute flowback tests indicating the pressure regime for this well.
-- Professional Directional will provide directional drilling solutions.
-- Schlumberger (NYSE:SLB) will acquire open hole logs that are used to identify the geological makeup of target production zones.
The Operator will also enable operational updates over the Internet to the Greater Sooner Holdings website, allowing shareholders to track drilling operations directly from the wellsite. Greater Sooner owns a working interest in this well, the first in partnership with proven Operator Carburante Exploration. Due to rig availability, drilling operations are scheduled by early November. The company continues to make its shareholders aware of terminology associated with its operations. The following definitions pertain to our field operations and activities. Directional drilling: also called slant hole drilling. The technique of intentional, controlled drilling at an angle from the vertical by deflecting the drill bit. Although wellbores are normally drilled vertically, it is sometimes necessary or advantageous to drill at an angle from the vertical. Controlled directional drilling makes it possible to reach subsurface areas laterally remote from the point where the bit enters the earth. It involves the use of turbodrill, whipstocks, or other deflecting tools. Deviated hole: a hole drilled in a non-vertical direction to reach the target zone. Drilling mud: a drilling mixture consisting of one or two liquid phases and dissolved and undissolved solids with properties tailored to a particular problem. It cools and lubricates the drilling bit, conditions the formation wall, removes cuttings from the borehole, brings traces of formation fluids to the surface, and, when it possesses certain characteristics, it provides a wellbore medium suitable for some electrical, acoustic, and nuclear well-logging measurements. Types include oil emulsion, invert oil emulsion, oil-base mud, and water-base mud. Flowback: after a shut-in period, fluid is allowed to flow back over a fixed choke, and the pressure and the returned volume are recorded as a function of time. Flowback tests are a preferred method for measuring the minimum horizontal in-situ stress of a well, helping to determine the fracture regime of the target geological formations. Open hole: an uncased hole, or uncased portion of the hole. Uncased as in casing never existed or has been removed. Open hole log: a well log acquired in an uncased hole. Petrophysics: the study of the physical and chemical properties that describe the occurrence and behavior of rocks, soils and fluids measured by well logs and other devices. The goal is to determine the behavior and characteristics of a oil or gas reservoir; by studying such parameters as Porosity, Water saturation, and Permeability. Well log: also known as wireline log, borehole log. The product of a survey operation, also called a survey, consisting of one or more curves. Provides a permanent record of one or more physical measurements as a function of depth in a well bore.
