  • The two wells bring the company's operated producing well count in the SWISH Play to eleven.

Brookside Energy Limited (ASX:BRK) has established first sales from two newly completed wells at its operated Suttles Pad in the SWISH Play, part of the southern SCOOP area of Oklahoma's Anadarko Basin. The Sabres 2-1-1S-3W SXH1 and Whalers 2-1-1S-3W WXH2 wells both started delivering hydrocarbons to sales during the early stages of flowback, which takes the company's operated producing well count in the SWISH Play to eleven.

Two Suttles Wells Reach Sales During Flowback

Brookside reported that both wells commenced producing to sales while completion fluids were still being recovered. Clean-up operations are continuing at the Suttles Pad, and the wells remain in the early stages of flowback. The company is monitoring their performance and will report peak 24-hour production, known as IP24, and the 30-day average rate, known as IP30, once enough representative production data have been gathered.

The two wells target different zones. Sabres is completed in the Sycamore Formation, while Whalers is completed in the Woodford Formation. Brookside holds an approximate 70% working interest in both. In Brookside's glossary, a working interest is the percentage of ownership in a lease that gives its owner the right to explore, drill and produce oil and gas from a property, with a corresponding share of the costs of leasing, drilling, producing and operating a well or unit.

The wells sit within the SWISH area of interest, the name Brookside uses for its acreage in the SCOOP play. SCOOP stands for the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province, an oil and gas play in the Anadarko Basin. Wells in Oklahoma are drilled within spacing units, which the glossary defines as the geographical area from which a well is produced from the formations named in a spacing order, with the order also dividing ownership between royalty and working interests. Production from a unit is shared among all interest owners.

Management Comment and Company Profile

Managing Director and CEO David Prentice described getting both Suttles wells to sales early in flowback as a good result and said the team delivered the two-well program safely and efficiently. He said the wells add two more producers to the company's asset base and that the immediate task is managing both wells through flowback and establishing how they perform, while continuing to execute a strategy aimed at growing production and building scale.

Brookside describes itself as a U.S.-focused oil and gas producer operating in the Anadarko Basin. The company reports that it has built a concentrated position in the SWISH Play, with a growing production base alongside a reserve inventory and drilling runway. Its stated strategy is to grow production, build scale and return capital through disciplined development, a maintained balance sheet and capital allocation intended to compound per-share value over time. The release was issued from the company's Tulsa, Oklahoma base and authorised by the Board, and Brookside is also quoted on the OTC Pink market under the code RDFEF.

The announcement did not include production rates, volumes or cost figures for either well. Those details are to come through the IP24 and IP30 reporting once flowback data are sufficient.

Where the Suttles Program Stands

With first sales established, the two-well Suttles program has moved from completion to production. Sabres in the Sycamore Formation and Whalers in the Woodford Formation, each held at an approximate 70% working interest, join nine existing wells to make eleven operated producers in the SWISH Play. Flowback and clean-up continue at the pad, and the production figures from both wells are still to be reported.
