Zephyr Energy 开始准备作业，以开钻 State 36-2 LNW-CC-R 井的初始地表部分，该井是犹他州 Paradox Basin 项目的一部分。所有必要的辅助服务提供商也已抵达现场以支持其运营。

新井将瞄准与原井钻探过程中所证实的相同的 Cane Creek 储层和超压含气天然裂缝系统。新井的钻探总深度计划达到 10,362 英尺的测量深度（9,600 英尺的真实垂直深度），并将包含一个 270 英尺的水平油藏部分。如果需要的话，新井的设计还可以在以后钻探更长的 10,000 英尺水平段。

钻井作业预计从开工之日起大约需要 30 天。达到总深度后，将调动完井和试井人员完成短水平段并测试新井穿过的任何生产性天然裂缝系统。

Zephyr Energy started rigging up operations to spud the initial, surface section of the State 36-2 LNW-CC-R well, part of the Paradox Basin project in Utah.  All necessary ancillary service providers have also arrived on site to support its operations.

The new well will target the same Cane Creek reservoir and the over-pressured, gas-bearing natural fracture system that was proven during the drilling of the original well. Drilling at the new well is planned to reach a total depth of 10,362 ft measured depth (9,600 ft true vertical depth) and will incorporate a 270-ft horizontal reservoir section. The new well has also been designed to allow the drilling of a longer, 10,000-ft horizontal section later, should that be required.

Drilling operations are expected to take approximately 30 days from the date of spud. After reaching total depth, a completion and well test crew will be mobilized to complete the short horizontal section and test any productive natural fracture system intersected by the new well.
