COMMENTARY
The sale of the two Rennerfeldt wells has been completed netting Samson
a total of $200,000 which will be used to help fund the remaining wells
in the North Stockyard project.
Frontier rig 24 has completed drilling the Matilda Bay #1 and #2 wells.
The production liner has been run in the Matilda Bay #2 well and the
production liner is presently being run in the Matilda Bay #1 well. It
is anticipated that these two wells will be fracture stimulated in May
or June depending on equipment availability.
After drilling the Matilda Bay #1 well, Frontier rig 24 will move to the
Three Forks North Pad to begin batch drilling the first of four Three
Forks wells. The four Three Forks wells are the Ironbank 4-14 and 5-14
wells and the Bootleg 4-14 and 5-14 wells. These wells are all similar
in design and will have lateral lengths between 7,211 and 7,405 feet
long as shown in the table above. The current plan is to then move to
the Three Forks South Pad to begin drilling the final four Three Forks
wells.
Samson’s working interest and its net revenue interest is set out in the
following table:
