Roebear, the one slight negative in the report about the Wyoming casing test was also well explained. The operator used no directional control whatsoever. Sounded like they were doing some pretty wild "extreme" drilling. Just pound that casing in - no matter what! Maybe they are all gen x'ers, trying to get some cheap thrills. <g> Probably the operator was trying to find out just how cheap the process could get. The next tests should be more realistic. Anyway the 7" test in the GOM was a resounding success and will no doubt be used by that operator extensively. If they pull off the smaller diameter Shell test in the North Sea the casing drilling "revolution" will be on. Like I said in my pm - 8 = downside 20 = upside. If you think +20 it's all gravy.
