In DeWitt County, Texas, Blue Eagle Energy, LLC, the previously announced joint venture between Abraxas and Rock Oil Company, LLC, drilled the T Bird 1H to a total measured depth of 19,450 feet, including a 5,700 foot lateral. The well was completed with a 15-stage fracture stimulation and placed on-line in January 2011 at a restricted rate. Over the past 19 days, the well has produced an average of 5.8 MMcf of liquids-rich gas and 342 barrels of condensate per day on a 12/64-inch choke. Abraxas currently owns an approximate 50% interest in the joint venture.
“We are quite proud of our operations team as the T Bird well was drilled, completed and placed on-line approximately 75 days after spud. This is a very strong well and capable of producing eye catching headlines as the flowing pressure is currently 8,500 psi; however, due to long-term reservoir considerations, we are restricting the flow through a relatively small choke. Comparing the early performance of the T Bird well to others in the area, our well is one of the strongest in the DeWitt County gas/condensate window,” commented Bob Watson, Abraxas’ President and CEO.
