Oil and gas news from the Panhandle and Kimball County regions notes a new producing area potential north of Potter in Slama Field. Updates include B-1 Slama wildcat, New Laaker well near Sidney, and Rabass, Boslau, and Sloss wells with various completion statuses and drill activity across Barrett, McMillan, and surrounding fields.
Navy researchers consider alternatives to distillation to provide drinking water while cutting costs. Traditional sea water purification is expensive, driving interest in experimental approaches and new technologies for efficient desalination.
Pan American Petroleum projects water flooding beneath Kimball to recover an estimated two million extra barrels of oil. At current prices this could add about six million dollars to field value. Water wells near the city supply the flood, with unitization agreements under signing by Larry Davis and Dewey Parrott. Completion of two more Denver Julesburg Basin units, Edwards and Vowers, was announced, each expected to lift oil recovery by about 60 percent. Operators Magnolia Petroleum and Petroleum Inc in Powers Unit and Nebraska Drillers in Edwards Unit joined Pan American in these units.
