So if all horizons are commercial how do you think they will look to start the production.
From HH1, HH2 or both and at which levels from each well.
Would they then add the sidetrack at the beginning or after initial production flows?

We are only testing now but the reason that I asked is because UKOG's plans are to drill HH'2 as the Portland producer maybe with a side track.
If the answer is yes why can they not produce oil on all levels from 2 Wells?
It may be a stupid question but there seems to be some knowledgeable technical people here so lets see if any are able to give a definitive answer.
Supposing that the Portland, Kl 3 & Kl 4 produced at what is considered commercial rates.
Would it be possible to extract oil at all 3 levels at one time. (eg. Like an octopus well but only 3)?
I don't know if it is possible to buy a new licence at any stage or not?
But it occurred to me after this comment that the £2 million for an opportunistic purchase could be for a new licence for UKOG & you never know if it would become a new drill site for next year
Looking at how the pump speed was initiated & has now been increased we may still be getting the well settled & ready for the tests.
This may seem long winded but better not to rush & cause some damage.
It is good to see oil flowing from which we know it's working & will be sold for revenue.

Thanks maccy
Two of the big differences between 2016 & now are the pump is now a 475 barrel pump not 350 & the price of a barrel of oil is now over $70 which is a lot higher than before.
The oil price change alone on the same quantity of oil may take it commercial.
One of my biggest questions is if 350 barrels will make the Portland commercial why will 900BOPD not make the Kimmeridge commercial?

Unfortunately it has not flowed at rates at this stage that are considered commercial.
This is unfortunate as BB is 100% owned by UKOG & the revenue giving cash flow would help pay the bills and give confidence in future operations instead of relying on new investment & dilution to fund future exploration.
