From revent rns ... "The two 2018 long-term Kimmeridge tests will utilise existing perforations and will access around a 30 metre gross reservoir zone in each of the KL3 and KL4 zones, located at around 840 and 900 metres below surface respectively. As well as determining the volume of Kimmeridge oil in contact with the wellbore, the testing programme is designed to assess whether the Kimmeridge is one large single reservoir where both KL3 and KL4 are connected by natural fractures within the encasing oil generative shales."
If they are connected, and the k.s original short term tests were done separately ...would this not mean the brief separate oil flows were double booked so to speak? This being due to intrrconnecting fractures? If both k3/4 are ooened simultaneously, will production fall? I genuinely dont know the answer. Is that why k3/4 might be done together testwise afterwards if time? Better to flow Port/K3/k4 together ...potentially more oil in any given time period? If not fewer bopd. Ideas/thoughts ...Penguin?
