Shut in producers Martin County, Texas

Hi y’all,

Why would XTO drill 7-9 wells in Martin county then show them all as “shut in producers” on the Texas RRC Website? Thank you.

frac’ing offsets, just not producing yet, XTO is a bunch of clowns. All sorts of possible answers. Which unit is it?

The Hill 1 wells. Thank you NMoilboy.

Those were drilled 1Q24. They are just sitting there waiting to be frac’d.

Over the past year, for wells XOM completed in Midland Basin (114 wells):

Median spud-to-frac : 304 days Median spud-to-sales : 405 days

Add about 6 months until you get paid, and you are looking at probably getting a DO here around Labor Day 2025 and a check by Thanksgiving.

Maybe.
