Operational Update

Marksmen has a Joint Operating Agreement with PEP Drilling LLC of Ohio, to recomplete up to 40 wells where the Clinton Sandstone was bypassed when the wells were drilled a number of years ago that targeted a much deeper horizon. These wells are located in Portage County, Ohio with good access roads and come complete with a full complement of surface and downhole equipment.  

Marksmen is pleased to announce that the first Clinton Sandstone recomplete bypass well was perforated on May 26, 2020 and hydraulic fractured on May 28.  As of June 12, 2020, the well is now in the production testing phase and preliminary flow rates for both oil and natural gas continue to be very positive. Work is continuing to increase pumping rates, add an additional production tank, and generally fine tune production operations. An initial production rate will be announced as soon as possible.
