When considering the future of the oil and gas industry beyond 2024, it is crucial to address the often-misguided use of the term "pollutant" in reference to carbon dioxide (CO2). While CO2 is frequently categorized as a "greenhouse gas," this label can be misleading without proper context. CO2 plays a vital role in the Earth's ecosystems; it is essential for the process of photosynthesis, where plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, thereby sustaining plant life and, by extension, animal life, including humans. Moreover, CO2 is a natural byproduct of Moreover, CO2 is a natural byproduct of respiration in mammals. Every time we exhale, we release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, underscoring its inherent role in the respiratory cycle. Thus, describing CO2 simply as a pollutant overlooks its fundamental contributions to life on Earth. As we engage in discussions about environmental policies and regulations, particularly in regions like California, it is imperative to present these facts to government officials and policymakers. An informed dialogue that recognizes the importance of CO2 can lead to a more balanced understanding of its role in both natural processes and the broader context of climate science. Advocating for a nuanced perspective on CO2 is essential to avoid oversimplification and to promote responsible energy practices that ensure both environmental sustainability and economic viability.

2024 11 18 Rigging Up Annular Preventer - Duane Winkler (LSOG Wellsite Supervisor)

 This morning, Monday, November 18, 2024, 6:00 am MST, we are drilling 40 fph at 12,940’. Made 270’ yesterday. Finished TIH with 6 1/8” bit and BHA.

Drilled out float joints and 10’ of new hole. Conducted a FIT (“Formation Integrity Test”) . Tested casing seat to 14.5 ppg. Currently drilling @ 12,940’!

 

Current plans are:

(1.) Drill 6 1/8” hole to 15,600’ TVD (15,800’ MD)!!

 

Today’s video features Mr. Duane Winkler, one of our Wellsite Supervisors, discussing the surface well control equipment currently being utilized on the Found Soldier Federal #1.

On numerous reports you see the acronym “BOP” or “BOPE”, which stands for Blowout Preventer.

This usually refers to the entire BOP stack, which will become more clear in the video.

 

Have also attached another still picture by Jacek entitled “Moonrise on Rig 88”.

 

Enjoy!
