ADI - Adelphi Energy

Bty Agentm, what does 'TD' stand for in the context of drilling a well.

Sorry I am very new to this oil and gas business!

Thanks
Eva:)
 
Thanks for all the great info Agentm. I hope you are right. It certainly does make sense. Sounds good needing the big rig to handle it!

I bit the bullet and shot some of another stock to get the funds to buy more ADI at 59c today.

ADI has so much more upside than the other play and a sideways trade seemed a good idea atm. Nerves of steel and good luck to all holders!

Eva


your certainly have some fortitude!!

TD means terminal (total) depth.. the end point of the drilling.

I dont have a single problem holding onto adi right now.. kunde 3 is a brilliant well, and the 35 extra days of drilling could be accounted for by the pressure problems and other factors on the rig deck..

SL2 is waiting for patterson, that rig is not laying idle, so once that massive rig is dissassembled and reassembled then away we go.. we have all the knowledge of how to control the play from K3 to use at SL2

SL1 is only days away,, i wouldnt be counting on anything past the end of the month,, within a week or so..

think about the massive pressure these guys have been fighting with at K3, and the huge kicks!! what a play..
 
I remember massive pressures at NT and I cant remember the last time I heard anything from ADI about NT maybe it was when they said it was no commercial flow rates !

nt was a fault play.. they cant explain the loss..

up the well at about 14000 they will test next.. in no rush really it seems, but who would be when you about to pepper 2 counties with wells!!

r u talking K3 or NT?

Is there a remote possibility they could lose K3? or is that just talking daft.:cool:
 
Agentm. did Pueblo and Regency appear in your research?
From my investigations, there is an expectation of growth from the Fashing area.
If so, did you do any analysis of throughput on the existing facility, or more appropriately on the new pipeline?
 
Hate to put a dampner on things here guys but lets not get too excited about imminent news... Texas is about to be hit by a storm so fairly safe assumption to expect delays on the upcoming announcements...
 
i was talking to a local down there, runs a property just down the road from SL1, said they have had more rainfall already than the summer average, expected a good few inches from this one, said the locals looked forward to it for the hay..

jjf..or tosser or whatever you are..

Energy Transfer purchased the Houston pipeline grid after they went bankrupt.. have not checked the other line,, i assume thats what your talking about? can you email any details..

Jacko..

NT is New Taiton, a well in Wharton county, it was on a fault play, and they lost circulation in the welll and couldnt drill to TD, they put in production casing, and perforated and fraced, the pressure never came back.. its a mystery.. Its shut in now, and will be reviewed as soon as the JVP is happy with quotes for uphole frac operations according to ADI..

re K3, can it be lost? absolutely, the well is dealing with intense pressure kicks.. That well must be close to TD right now..

sugarkane is a very high pressure play, as experienced by K2 and K3 and with SL1.. the patterson rig is being called upon for very very sound reasons!! its one of the biggest rigs in texas and has massive pumps to deal with this high pressure play..


17% drop yesterday, and now 10% today.. thats great value right there!!

if all shareholders on the planet rigth now today donated 1% of their shares to fix the sub prime delema, and pay out the loans, which berneke said was only 50 - 100 billion, then there would be plenty cash spare for perhaps feeding the starving and maybe a small war somewhere..

we have mass panic and share price wipeouts, which themselves generate more losses and bankruptcies.. so as to add fuel to the fire of the panic..

i still remain unphased by this media induced hysteria. and look forward to perhaps joining those who are adding some more at these brilliant prices..

good luck to those selling and your doing well today if your buying!!;)

call me jjf if you like, just don't call me tosser, its reserved.

Agentm, it is my suggestion that the mysterious sim card type building is (as you have said) gas related.

I believe it to be a gas compression and treatment plant previously owned by Pueblo and now owned by Regency Energy Partners who are in the process of linking it to their RIGS pipeline.

http://www.regencygas.com/website/operations/services_south.html

The pipeline connecting it to the Tilden plant should have been installed by now, but has been delayed by rain.

I listened to Regency's recent weebcast and believe that they are preparing for increased throughput.

its possible,, but the pipeline that the plant is on is owned by energy transfer, the pipeline just passing SL2 is from regency the way i see it,, can you confirm the plant is on that acreage? i see the xto wells are serviced by them and xto are increasing their production there,, pioneer have big plans in the area also.. watch out for big things in northern bee county,,,

i am hoping to have the site solved in short term.. just work in progress..

are you adding at eme??? it looks like great opportunities right now..
 
The sim card is not a building there are no shadows to the west. This photo was taken mid morning when the sun was heading for the apex. so you would expect to see shadows on the west face there is a small white roofed building within the compound there is a shadow on the ground at west face of this. it is highlighted by the contrast to the cream background

There are power lines comming in from both the south and north, you can see the rows of pylons in the fields surrounding, if you want i can render using gaussian edge techniques and post to prove its not a building.

I analyis alot of aerial photos as part of my job. Believe me this looks just like a power distribution station.
 
ok.. this is how the pipelines run. all gas... liquid line is about 500 metres east of SL2..

agentm,
This is the Kunde # 3 rig number as I believe that you wanted to compare it to the Patterson #30 2000hp Triple Tower beastie for the Kennedy horizontal drill:-

Drilling Contractor:
NABORS DRILLING
Rig Number:
775

P.S. Just an excuse to get my century!!
 
one thing that doesn't make sense is why they have seemingly restored the sugarloaf 1 well site to what looks like the original field/pasture.... when there is still well testing etc. to be carried out... can't make out the well-head from google.... the sim-card site looks brand new... they'd need to put in a few separators (condy/oil/water), slug catcher(?) plus sales gas conditioning (glycol tower?) etc if this is going to be a gathering station for the field's producers... surely the JV's would have announced that construction was taking place if this is the reason for the site.... could it be a large drill site with several drill slots for deviated wells running out to the required drainage points? and does it even have to belong to the JV's...??
 
jjf..

dont need to be concerned about the runway so much, its part of the san christoval ranch,, its owned by a gentleman from interstate and he jets in..

the smaller pad in the pasture is a pump station for the gas pipeline. south gate gas transmission..

the other sim card site is unknown to me.. i have had observers from texas in the oil industry say its oil/gas related, and some here who are saying its electrical grid related..

the google map is about 2 years behind.. pogue is on it, kunde 1 is seen, but not kunde 2 which went in at around the the same time as SL1

SL1 site is as correctly pointed out earlier not on the sim card but is half way from the simcard to the road 173. 350 odd feet from the fence, so on google earth you can measure it and pick the point in the pasture..

still nothing in the way of news from K3... astounding!!
 
I am conversing with someone in the area.
SL2 site is very close to the road.
just a short trip up the 626 from highway 72
What should he be looking out for, and when?
 
you better not lead those texas locals on a wild goose chase!!

i was speaking to nabors drilling on the size of the 775 rig, the rig is a 2000 hp rig, so similar hp to the patterson rig..

interesting that they chose to wait for the patterson rig to come off another site rather than use any of two 2000 hp rigs laying idle in the nabors stable..
