I wonder whether there is a significant limited advantage to HDD where you have hydrocarbon columns that themselves are a couple thousand feet thick. No doubt in my mind HDD is terrific for thin seams of hydrocarbons, but where does the tradeoff occur? Lots of variables, not the least of which simply being just how much gas can one six or eight inch diameter pipe flow? If I were to guess, we can pad drill to the maximum effective distances in the E/A formation with our existing equipment as demonstrated at Antelope 2. Ditto with 3Tops.
How many wells per pad? Don't have any idea.
