Sunny, Please clarify the significance of a top drive versus a more traditional rotary table drive on a rig. Is this important for slant drilling or high pressure formation drilling? More efficient?

The reason I asked is that you mentioned the Austin Chalk Formation where as you know wells start out as gangbusters, then peter out quickly back to a stripper well-type of production- so there's lots of horizontal drilling in the Chalk....

Sincerely,

Doug F.
