The well, in which Diaz will pay 15 per cent of the costs, to casing point, to earn a 22.5 per cent working interest, is planned to be drilled to 15,500 feet and should reach total depth in approximately five weeks. In addition, the company updated its other Wilcox activities. The Provident City No. 2 well, Diaz 13-per-cent working interest, is currently producing at a rate of 12 million cubic feet per day with a flowing tubing pressure of 6,450 pounds per square inch. The first well on the Mustang Creek prospect, Lehrer No. 1, Diaz 8-per-cent working interest, is flowing at 1.65 million cubic feet per day, with a flowing pressure of 1,600 pounds per square inch. Completion operations are continuing on the Lehrer No. 2 well, Diaz 9-per-cent working interest. The Upper Magnolia sand will be perforated on Friday, Dec. 5, 2003, and flow tested prior to fracture stimulation planned later this month. Approximately 20 feet of the Lower Magnolia sand was completed last week, and produced natural gas on a short production test. This zone will be temporarily suspended and later commingled, allowing for the pending completion of the potentially more productive upper Wilcox sands in the well.
