ABSTRACT

Helper Previous HitfieldNext Hit, located on the southwestern flank of the Uinta Basin in central Utah, produces gas from multiple coal seams and interbedded sandstone within the Upper Cretaceous Ferron Sandstone Member of the Mancos Shale. Subsurface mapping, along with coal and sandstone Previous HitpetrophysicalNext Hit properties obtained from two exploratory Previous HitwellsNext Hit drilled in 1993, led to the drilling of a five well exploratory pilot program that established gas sales in 1994. Drilling from 1995 through 2003 resulted in the completion of 111 additional coalbed methane Previous HitwellsNext Hit. In mid-2003, Helper Previous HitfieldNext Hit was producing 35 mmcfg/day and production was increasing as pressure draw down continued. Full Previous HitfieldNext Hit development is anticipated at 125 Previous HitwellsTop.
