Production from the formerly underperforming well (Johnson 9H, API # 42-237-39353) was increased from less than 10 barrels of oil and 85mcf of gas per day to over 200 barrels of oil and 800mcf of natural gas per day.
Halek Energy CEO Jason Halek said that the company will continue to optimize production from the wells it has drilled in the Halek (Caddo) field.
A frac is a procedure used to improve production from an oil and gas well by forcing pressure into rock formations, creating fractures to allow better flow of the hydrocarbons to the wellbore.
The procedure involves the use of frac sand and frac fluids that are pumped into the well during the fracturing operation.
