Big Dog, Heh-heh- good quotation. Say I wanted to correct an improper statement I said here a few months ago. I opined that underbalanced drilling eliminates most frac jobs. I was wrong. My buddy at Nabors Drilling corrected me. Underbalanced drillling does help prevent clogging the face of the formation with heavy drilling muds; that improves well flow rate; however a decision to frac/not frac a well will still be made near the end of an underbalanced drilling project...
