Blackbird Energy Inc. provided an update on its Elmworth drilling program, the company said Oct. 27. It drilled, logged and cased the third well at Elmworth, the 2-20 well, at 2-20-70-7W6. The company has full working interest.
The 2-20 well’s drilling program included the drilling of a vertical pilot well from surface location 10-8-70-7W6 to 2,582 meters (m) vertical depth. That well was then logged to the bottom of the Lower Montney. When logging was finished, the company drilled a horizontal leg about 2,000 m targeting the Middle Montney to downhole location 2-20-70-7W6. The well’s total measured depth is 4,660 m.
The 2-20 well was spudded on Sept. 24 drilling operations were completed in 32 days. This is an improvement in drilling efficiency and planned capex compared with the 6-26 and 5-26 wells, Blackbird added.
Blackbird will complete the 2-20 well using NCS sliding sleeve frack technology on coiled tubing. There will be 71 individual foam fracks over 2,000 m in the completion. Results from the well’s production test will be announced in January 2016, the company said.
Darrell Denney resigned from the board of directors, the company added.
Blackbird Energy Inc. is based in Calgary, Alberta.
