Flowing discovery uncovered in Ector County Texas
In Northeast Ector County the Wolfcamp Permian lime shows another flowing oil discovery. Brill No 1 Falken near Ratliff, about 11 miles northeast of Odessa and 21 miles northwest of Midland, flowed oil from Wolfcamp and tests indicate potential Pennsylvanian lime prospects. The well produced up to 672 barrels daily on a 15/64 inch choke with 400 pounds tubing pressure, with oil gravity around 43 degrees and no formation water detected. Multiple tests and deeper drilling are planned with other operators including Hanley Company and associates and nearby leases held by E Capitan Oil Spar tan Drilling State Exploration Southern Production.
