Jabbar + 465 JN November 21, 2019 (edited) Better yet . . . if a 20% yield becomes the norm for prime shale properties . . does that end the majors plan to pick up distressed shale properties at bargain prices ?

Gerry Maddoux + 3,627 GM November 21, 2019 Jabber, 20% recovery is now pretty much the industry norm in the major basins: Bakken, Delaware, Permian, SCOOP/STACK. But keep in mind, these are in the sweet spots. I don't think it's going to make much difference about bankruptcies, etc. It may well drop the price of a barrel of crude oil.

Conoco said Tuesday their results on the few test wells were leading in the industry. Earlier this year Chevron CEO said the shale industry best was 9% to 10%. The Occidental CEO said the same. They both said they thought advancements could eventuslly get up onto the high teens. When I brought this up two months ago the high teens were panned. Hate to disagree, you are way more knowledgeable than I . . . bit I believe you are wrong on this one. I'd bet my house on that. Wanna bet ? Check your facts. As for number of wells per section. I know many have been trying to accomplish 20 wells per section. Those I have heard about have failed. Many on this site have stated the most possible is 6. Conoco's success with 12 to 16 sounds impressive. What say you? While I have you can I ask a question. I heard all the excitement over the Scoop/Stack in OK has faded with many leaving the basin. Have you seen the same ? Thanks Edited November 22, 2019 by Jabbar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
