ABSTRACT: Madden Deep Unit - Madison Drilling

Robert Soza1

Abstract

Five 25,000 foot Madison wells have been drilled in the Madden Deep Unit in Fremont County, Wyoming. Monsanto Oil Company, BHP Petroleum, Inc., Louisiana Land and Exploration Company, and Burlington Resources drilled them from 1982 to 2000. The last two wells have incorporated significantly different casing programs that have resulted in decreased drilling days. A review of Madison wells drilled in the Madden Deep Unit will be presented with specific discussion on design and operational issues.
