With regards the timeline for the flow testing, yesterday's RNS yesterday stated,
"Processing and analysis of the pressure build-up data will be completed by early next week".
Now Dave is normally a little cagey on exact dates, which is to be expected. So when I quizzed him after the 21/5 Operation Update about the process around the 11/6 flow test, his response was that it would be thereabouts with nitrogen lift within two days.
Then 10-14 days to remove the frac fluid.
So the pressure gauges have been pulled, they have ?tagged bottom? confirming that there has been no build-up of debris in the tubing during the shut-in period, so this I understand means no further perforation is required. I'd say early next week there will be another update stating that natural flow has commenced and /or artificial lift has been employed - around a week earlier than forecast. Dave will not want to run short on time, should there be any hick ups. The weather next week looks pretty warm(relatively) so they won't be sitting on their hands waiting for the 11th to roll around.
