Operational Update
At the Leaman #1 Horizontal well, Hocking Hills, Ohio, Marksmen is a 60% working interest partner in this well operated by Hocking Hills Energy and Well Services LLC. of Ohio. As stated in an earlier press release this well encountered a number of oil and gas shows during the drilling of the well. The well has been successfully completed using multi-stage hydraulic fracturing. During the process to remove the multi-stage separation plugs in the casing, the Operator experienced technical difficulties. Marksmen is providing support to the Operator from its technical team and expert contractors to provide a viable solution and expects to have the issue resolved in the next few weeks.
At our Davis Holbrook well in Pickaway County, Marksmen has adjusted the daily pumping on/off cycle and production has increased from a low of 538 barrels per month in January 2018 to a high of 1,509 barrels per month. The last three months of production is higher than any quarter in 2017.
