Question on terminology

What does it mean if a well type is described as a 'shut in producer'?? Thanks

Thank you....doesn't sound good.!!

Well Cass, nothing sounds good from either Terry or Lynn counties for the last year or so. Just disappointing results all over the place with the occasional news of a producing oil well, but pretty much just bad news.
