Sometimes I just need to remember to step back, enjoy the blue sky and moving rod pumps.

Today I lose my job of 2+ years. Tied for my favorite job ever. We built an operations wing of an E&P from the ground up and did some outside of the box stuff.
Today I also officially start my own operating company! Been a dream of mine for 4 years. Time to get after it!

Said goodbye to an old well today. She had a good long life.
Born in 1943, she is survived by her many brothers and sisters.

It feels oddly self serving so instead of a pat on the back, I'd like to just share. I closed on a waterflood today, putting my well count at 117.

A note on the market for buying low volume PDP right now... I am running strip price and offering PV12-15 and being turned away... these are wells that were barely cash flow positive in 2020.

Still waiting on my gunk to be tested on our swabbed well

I had Jaime at Dynacloud send me a video of the clutch actuator in action on our newly rodded up well. Gas engine can now run autonomously which will reduce our stroke count and increase time between failures.

Exhausted and yet energized at the same time doesn't begin to describe the feeling of starting up a company.
The highs are high and the lows are lows. Somedays I think I'm in over my head and others I know exactly what I am doing. My only regret is I didn't start up sooner.

One of the things I enjoy doing and saves me a ton of $$ is electrical work.

Good morning…?
What in the name of gremlins happened yesterday? One compressor goes down, then this rod part, then the cherry on top was power outage killing an ESP at 23:15. All one day.

Will be interesting if any lawsuits come out of mining bitcoin from stranded/flare gas. Do you pay the royalty owner with bitcoin or cash?

A snapshot of how cold it is in Oklahoma for an operator... 39 of 136 active wells down due to the cold with the coldest temps and projected snow to come.
We had 0 wells go down last winter from cold weather.

I probably will regret this...
Somebody point me in the direction of a company who wants to help us mine bitcoin on a well we have on a trial basis. Possible the well will make the 250 MCFD. Been SI for a long time after the pipeline nearby was deactivated.
Prefer just leasing

I'm not sure there is anything more thrilling than sitting at your desk and flipping through old unorganized well files. What will I find next or not find at all?
Why are there 3 folders for the same well? 😂

Super cool using
@VVcoach
’s Tap It tool to check for pump action downhole.
Helped us pressure test tubing
Stroked well thru header
Next step is to swap out the gearbox/pumping unit.
So many more applications and wells to try this on. So impressed!

My thoughts on student loan forgiveness
My student loans are paid off
I don't care if they forgive them.
I DO care if they keep handing them out
College costs so much is because of near infinite supply of funds. Make these debts bankruptable... price discovery will occur...

Swapped out a pump panel that burned up when it fell off the old pole (prev. operator). Got it stroking again but no good pump action.
Time to shake her up next

My little girl asked to go on a “take your kid to work day”. Today seemed appropriate to take her.
What do we think is that a corrosion pitting failure? Or mechanical? Rod boxes showed some pitting but no pits on rods we could find all up and down string

#EFT
tell me what I’m swabbing.
Getting this from 200-600’ right now. Well is cemented to surface so hard to believe this is drill mud.
Luckily the well is shallow and we only have 2300’ of hole

Been working on getting this well back on. Plugged up around brush plunger in tubing, after bailing sand we got the plunger but some dry sand/prop below. Couldn’t even get it all out and decided to see how it would flow, swabbed 3 bbls and made 400 mcf yesterday.
Wells are weird

Fishing again today. 7,500' of 1.75" coil. It's sitting about 5000' in the hole, hopefully we can get a good bite of it and it all comes!
This is our last job, boy is this wimpy engineer ready for office life for a few days.

Another morning, another coil pull. This well has 3.5” cemented in (tubingless completion) and will be getting dual stage plunger lift. We’ll be releasing the rental compressor and adding cash flow!

Been hard at work cleaning up things that don’t help make oil but they sure do make me feel better.
When we took this field over it was a mess, trash everywhere, trees growing thru pumping units. Power lines in trouble of having trees grow thru them.
We are nearly caught up!

Fishing complete. Time to get back to reeling up this leaky coil
Had to wait a day for workstring and got it latched into grapple on 3rd attempt. Was only 580’ in hole so easy to make runs at it but hard to set down.

Well file organization is such a mess. I hate having to drive into 15 folders before locating a file I should be able to hit two filters for
Well files on a on premise server is not the future. They need to be tagged to the appropriate pad, well, lease, and then tagged properly.
