Well that's one way yo try and get a thread deleted lol
RC 2020...the company states the water “was not” rate dependent....and you expect the shallower well to produce water...did you read the RNS?.....don’t try to change the text to try to cover your short......now run along Sonny...
Best ignore whats written on BOARDS and read the RNS...
RC, what a load of nonsense , (one well shielding the other). They have been individually testing each well on many occasions since FOil as no doubt you well know. The Water Issue is dead and buried so move on to some other imaginary issue to bleat on about.

brace yourself Roders.
And on a more positive note, what Hurricane have done in developing Lancaster is remarkable. Ahead is time and on budget. You don’t see that very often in the oil industry.
Hi Spedders,
The well producing water is deeper and closer to the contact. As Hurricane state there is strong interference between the wells and the deeper Well is likely acting as a shield keeping water from the shallower well. Now that they are testing each well separately I expect the shallower well to start producing water. As Hurricane state a rate dependency for the water cut is a strong indication of aquifer rather than perched water response. Let’s see what comes from their testing. It’s encouraging that they will make production results available.
RC_2020,
The fear of aquifer breakthrough may well have spooked the market, fed by dspp et al, however it is plain wrong. The most probable (90+% ) explanation is that it is perched water, simples!
RC2020
We have two Wells that from pressure data show close connectivity. One well is dry, one has some water cut. If there was aquifer water in one well, then both would be producing water cut. Therefore it is perched water in one of the fractures. Seems simple to me, or am I missing something that all the know alls are telling me? They are concentrating on risk (d riving the price down) rather than the facts. Still, thanks, I have averaged down this morning on the RNS.
DIcky, don't encourage our newest oil expert 'it's pretty basic stuff'
Poor lad obviously hasn't covered fractured basement resevoirs in his reading materials yet
RC2020
I'm afraid you seem to have broken it down wrongly, which is unfortunate being as this is your first post.
The water that has been seen in one well is from a pocket of 'perched' water. It is not aquifer water.
Let’s break it down. Hurricane claim Lancaster is a multi billion barrel field with a very deep contact. Current producers are shallow and horizontal so should be well away from any aquifer. From Publicly available production data, monthly water cut has steadily increased to 13% in October. How do you guys reconcile a large deep oil pool with increasing water cut? I think this is what’s spooking the market. It’s pretty basic stuff.
