HOUSTON, Jan. 8 – CrownQuest Operating LLC, private Midland operator, and Lynden Energy Corp., Vancouver, BC, tied in the first Wolfberry well, spud a second, and expects to spud a third within a week in a five-county program in West Texas.

Production capability isn’t known yet for the Harrell-34-1, which went to TD 10,906 ft and had nine frac stages. Miller Trust-101 and Mallard 23-2 are projected to 10,000-11,000 ft targeting oil and gas in Permian Spraberry and Wolfcamp.

The overall project covers five prospects on 12,063 net acres in Glasscock, Howard, Martin, Midland, and Sterling counties. A typical completion covers a 2,500-3,000-ft gross interval at 7,000-10,500 ft. Lynden Energy is earning a 43.75% working interest in the three wells by funding 50% of costs.
