Prairie Operating 在 Rusch Pad 启动 11 口井的开发

Prairie Operating Co. 正在科罗拉多州韦尔德县的 Rusch Pad 启动一项包含 11 口井的开发计划。第一口井于 2025 年 4 月 1 日开钻,采用 Precision E-Drilling Rig 461,这是该公司在丹佛-朱尔斯堡 (DJ) 盆地扩大产量和提高运营效率的持续战略的一部分。

Rusch Pad 开发项目将包括 11 个两英里长的水平井,交替分布在 Niobrara A、B 和 C 白垩层和 Codell 砂岩之间。钻井预计将于 6 月初完成,随后不久将开始水力压裂。

预计 8 月初将开始投产。为了最大限度地减少对环境的影响,Prairie 将部署 Precision 的 E-rig 461,该设备由天然气发电机和电池备份供电,以提高效率并减少排放。

Rusch Pad 开发项目是在 Prairie 最近完成对 Bayswater 资产的收购之后进行的,这大大扩大了该公司在 DJ 盆地的地位。Prairie 目前专注于整合这些资产、提高运营效率以及执行其开发计划以推动生产增长和现金流生成。

Prairie Operating launches 11-well development at Rusch Pad

Prairie Operating Co. is launching an 11-well development program at the Rusch Pad in Weld County, Colorado. The first well was spud on 1 April 2025, utilizing Precision E-Drilling Rig 461, as part of the Company’s continued strategy to expand production and enhance operational efficiencies in the Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin.

The Rusch Pad development will consist of 11 two-mile lateral wells, alternating between the Niobrara A, B and C Chalks and the Codell Sandstone. Drilling is expected to be completed by early June, with hydraulic fracturing commencing shortly after.

Initial production is anticipated in early August. To minimize environmental impact, Prairie will deploy Precision’s E-rig 461, powered by natural gas generators with battery backup to enhance efficiency and reduce emissions.

The Rusch Pad development follows the recent closing of Prairie’s acquisition of Bayswater assets, which significantly expanded the Company’s position in the DJ Basin. Prairie is currently focused on integrating these assets, capturing operational efficiencies, and executing its development program to drive production growth and cash flow generation.
