Thanks for your comments and perhaps I would bow to your experience if some one backs it up and says you have some!!!
I get where you are coming from but I remember that the KL4 and Kl3 were already concluded as one reservoir.
Why would they want to commingle the same reservoir?????
I am also unsure why you bring API into it as the Portland is 36 and the Kimmeridge 41 which basically they are both classified as light crude as above 31API
Any way it lead me to go back and look at the RNS's which is always a good thing to do.
I admit I did give myself a little pat on the back as I found what I needed and also got a reboot on my understanding of the fundamentals here
The below is an excerpt from the RNS of 10 October 2018
"KL3 EWT flow sequence commenced ahead of planned KL4 test.
· KL3 flowed 40-41° API continuously and naturally to surface (i.e. without any pump) over a 50 hour initial planned oil flow period. Oil flow initiated instantaneously with minimal pressure "draw-down". First planned 24-hour shut-in and pressure build-up test ("PBU") now underway.
· Sustained continuous oil rates of between 563 and 771 barrels of oil per day ("bopd") on 36/64 and 38/64 inch choke, respectively, recorded over last 24 hours through test separator. Gas rates up to 186,000 cu ft per day measured through enclosed flare. Flow sustained at constant stable bottom hole pressure.
· Recorded sustained rates significantly exceed the 464 bopd over a short 7.5-hour total flow period reported in 2016.
· Initial well productivity index of between 1.4 to 2.5 bpd/psi is around twice that seen in 2016 KL3 test.
· To date four tankers of KL3 crude have been exported to Fawley refinery.
· Zero formation water produced. Metered associated water rates of 52 barrels per day ("bpd") decreasing to 14 bpd (i.e. 9% decreasing to 2%) in the past 24 hours. Produced water consists wholly of returned heavy completion brine. Well continues to "clean-up" with decreasing water content.
· Simultaneous pressure data recorded in overlying KL4 is indicative that KL3 and KL4 are one single connected oil pool with an implied minimum vertical extent of 358 ft.
· Further updates to be provided in due course following completion of the ongoing PBU test, further well clean-up, flow stabilisation, downhole oil sampling and further pressure build up tests.
· The KL4, which flowed at a reported rate of 901 bopd over a 4-hour period in 2016, will be flow tested after completion of the current KL3 EWT."
Now I know it all went boobs up for Angus and at the same time we went quite here on the Kimmeridge. Angus had water but above we are all dry
the figures above even if carved up by my new besty Penguins are pretty tasty.
MMMMMmmmmm let me think .I'm sorry I have to say Ukg united and will wait for the RNs' to come.
Something just something
