RE: Where did 88E go wrong?22 Apr 2019 17:29

88e was set up to target the HRZ as identified by PB. Any Conventional would have been incidental to the HRZ drilling.
i cannot think of any O & G prospector aiming at shale would then decide to ignore any incidental conventional strikes no matter how unplanned on the IW1 drill. Conventional was aspirational to the clearly identified goal that was the HRZ. Even after the first Conventional prospects had been identified the BOD made it clear the focus was on HRZ.
This situation evolved as the HRZ prospect was reduced from 3.6bb to the new figure circa 2. bb and the conventional target increased to 2.9bb gross, net 2.2bb to 88e and that does not include, is any, what any modern 3D may show on the central or eastern IW area.
