Here is the latest update on the Lois Anne 1-1 well following the completion of the Hunton formation, including drilling timelines for the Lois Anne 2-1 and 3-1 wells.
Current Performance:
Current Configuration:
Recent Progress: During the flowback period, we were flowing the fluids into the frac tanks. As we commenced construction of the permanent tank battery facilities, we connected the lines to the ASE 4 facilities. In just the past few days, we have been filling up the oil tanks.
To provide context for the Lois Anne #1 well's potential, we researched 4,300 Hunton formation wells across Oklahoma. Here is what our comprehensive analysis uncovered:

Gas Production:
Modern Well Performance:
The Lois Anne 1 well is currently in the early production phase, with 8-10 BOPD during the final load water recovery period. Based on historical Hunton formation performance data, wells typically show significant production increases as water production decreases and gas-oil ratios stabilize. The strong gas presence and oil filling the tanks are positive early indicators of the well's potential to reach low-to-mid range production rates over the coming months.
Once the ASE 4 disposal well receives regulatory approval, we will have the capability to co-mingle multiple formations—such as the Wilcox and Hunton—within individual wellbores. This strategic flexibility is made possible by having a cost-effective saltwater disposal solution in place, which eliminates the economic constraint that previously made high-water-cut formations unviable. By efficiently managing produced saltwater through the ASE 4 disposal facility, we can unlock additional productive zones and maximize hydrocarbon recovery across the field without being limited by water handling costs.
Target Formation: Viola formation (open hole completion)
Secondary Zone: Booch Sands
Scheduled Spud Date: By mid-December 2025
Target Formation: Wilcox formation
Scheduled Spud Date: Approximately 7 days from the Lois Anne #2 spud date
Drilling Plan: Back-to-back drilling operations planned for maximum operational efficiency
Drilling Rig Schedule: The drilling rig is scheduled to arrive on location within 24-48 hours, with both wells planned for consecutive drilling operations to optimize rig mobilization costs and accelerate the development timeline.
We will provide comprehensive updates as drilling operations commence on Lois Anne #2 and #3 wells.
