Hi Bob.

<<...to a person they have all stated that they believe the water is in the formation mixed, and not a separate water drive...>>

How then do they explain

(1) the original blowout discovery produced essentially dry gas at high rates for about 2 weeks before showing any sign of significant water ??

(2) BKP#1 on initial flow test produced essentially dry gas and condensate for 24 hours plus before the water hit ??

(3) the flaring events that have occurred during drilling have not been accompanied by large water cuts ??

It is indisputable that the hydrocarbons exist as a single dense critical fluid insitu. But, production performance to date does not, to me, support the suggestion of a "single" complex reservoir fluid (comprised of hydrocarbons and water). If there were but one complex "mixture" insitu, water would be produced with FIRST production in the same proportion that it is produced after sustained production, would it not ???

JMHOBWDIK.

Have a great day.
