SM Turns on Taps at 25-Well Merlin Maximus Pad; Spraberry, Wolfcamp Targets
SM Energy Co. detailed its recent operations on its 25-well Merlin Maximus development (targeting the Spraberry / Wolfcamp) within its RockStar area.
All 25 wells were drilled and completed as planned and on budget. 24 of the 25 wells (one well intentionally shut-in to monitor sub-surface pressure) are on production as scheduled. While it is very early data, all wells are meeting or exceeding production expectations.
The 25-well development includes nine Lower Spraberry, 11 Wolfcamp A and five Wolfcamp B wells located across a 1.1-by-2 mile development area. The wells have an average lateral length of 10,300 feet. Water production from the wells feeds into the Company's recently constructed water management system, which transports produced water either to Company-operated disposal wells or to be recycled for new well completions.
