Well, wouldn't these layers normally have been exploited in the drilling especially in the older wells. Which is to say it seems they would have already pumped out a virgin strata if they encountered it going down and if it were substantial.

So isn't this technology likely going to find smaller virgin strata or already pumped strata and recover these in smaller quantities? This is not to say it may not be profitable, just that it seems that the exploitation requires capital expenses, and any particular well may not be at break even for some time after startup.

It sounds like there can be some time involved in getting these operations going, too. How long before you can expect to see say even the first such well providing revenue, and how many of these wells do you think could be added say in a one month period?
