Sunset Industries Notes Availability of Drilling Performance Fluid

Sunset Industries confirmed an immediate availability worldwide of its Drilling Performance Fluid because of a strategic relationship that has been accepted from a top 3 company oilfield company for global distribution.

"As of 2/18/13, operators can immediately order our product and increase profitability with all wells worldwide," said Mike Long, CEO at Sunset Industries.

Many operators in the United States have already benefited from this cutting edge Drilling Performance Fluid. Recently a top U.S. operator used the product in the Granite Wash with a direct comparison wells that were 110 feet apart. Well #1 was drilled straight to KOP with no torque issues. The Drilling Performance Fluid was called in for use because Well #2 was approaching max torque limits shortly after intermediate casing due to a 12 degree tangent, starting at 500 feet. At this time it appeared that the well could not be completed.

Well #1 had no Drilling Performance Fluid and Well #2 had the product in the system at 3 percent concentration. Results from well #2, they finished the curve 54 percent faster, there was 37 percent reduction in torque, from end of curve a 12 percent increase in ROP, in addition they saved 2 Drill Bits & 2 Trip Outs.

With over 150,000 in savings a company spokesperson said, "We would not have been able to complete this hole without the Pro One Drilling Performance Fluid." (Case studies available upon request)

The Feb. 18 update is driven by customer feedback and is part of Sunset Industries' commitment to deliver the latest product updates and competitive enhancements.

Beach's Halifax-1 Well Flows Back Gas and Stimulation Fluid

Beach Energy disclosed Thursday that the flow back of stimulation fluid and gas from the Halifax-1 well, located in the onshore ATP 855P permit, started Feb.11, 2012.

As at 1800 local time Wednesday, the flow was being constrained to 2.2 million standard cubic feet per day by a 24/64 inch choke due to temperature restrictions on elements of the surface equipment. It is anticipated that the choke will be further opened as the ratio of gas to fluid in the well stream increases.

The well reached total depth at 13,994 feet (4,267 meters), after which a 14 stage fracture stimulation program was completed throughout the whole of the gas saturated Permian target zone.

Seven stages were completed in the deeper Patchawarra Formation, one in the Murteree Shale, two in the Epsilon Formation, two in the Roseneath Shale, one in the Daralingie Formation and one in the Toolachee Formation.

Commenting on the well's results, Beach's Managing Director Reg Nelson said: "Halifax-1 is the fourth vertical well to have flowed gas from the unconventional exploration program that Beach has operated to date. Each well in the exploration program is integral to the program as a whole, with various data points obtained along the way. It is anticipated that Halifax-1 will provide relevant information over the coming months that will continue to move this unconventional play toward commercialization."
