Clark #3 Well - Cooper Project - Sheridan County - Kansas
Drilling on the Clark #3 well reached TD of 4,146 feet on 30 April 2010 (Kansas Time). Oil shows were present in samples from the Howard, Toronto and Lansing-Kansas City formations. None of these produced on drill stem tests.
The well has been plugged. This well tested the northwest limits of the seismically defined closure. Logs indicate that the reservoir quality is variable with thinning of the target intervals at this location. This variability is commonplace in northwest Kansas. The extent of the excellent quality reservoirs encountered in the Clark #1 will be determined by further development drilling. Drilling of the Clark #4 development well, northeast of the Clark #1 well, is scheduled for the first half of June 2010.
