The excitement in Oklahoma and Kansas has been building as E&P

companies battle to capitalize on the Mississippian Lime formation thought

to be ‘tapped out’ by vertical drilling decades ago. The potential in the

Mississippi Lime play that could now be recovered through horizontal

drilling and completions has been compared to the promise seen in the

Bakken formation, with anticipated production set to reach 500,000 bpd by

the year 2020.

With the application of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing

techniques used in shale formations, operators are in search of recent

horizontal well data and the most economic completions techniques that

can be used to drive maximum recovery from the carbonate reservoirs

of the Mississippian Lime. The Mississippi Lime Congress 2012 will

be a leading industry event committed to providing detailed analysis of

geological variance, sweet spot identification techniques, completions best

practices and overall economic returns the Mississippian Lime formation.

Day one will focus on the geological variance in the Mississippian Lime

and the completions strategy necessary to recover commercial volumes

of hydrocarbons from the play. Delegates will hear how operators in the

play are adapting a variety of petrophysical and seismic data to target the

most productive sweet spots across the formation. A Kansas-based play

will be explored and solutions for managing produced water will also be

investigated in day one to demonstrate the costs that this could incur and

how to improve the economics of water management.

Day two concentrates on completions design, exploring how the

completions techniques used in a shale play can be adapted and

applied to a carbonate reservoir. It will focus on comparing completions

techniques to establish the most economical way to produce wells in

the Mississippian Lime. Day two will conclude with an overview of West

Oklahoma and East Oklahoma to establish the impact of formation

location on completions and assess the economic future of those

respective locations in the Mississippi Lime play.
