re: oilers . please comment. entropylord

"Anyone that has following testing and production reports for even a little while should understand that translating a test rate into a longterm production rate is way to simplistic."

~ I agree with that. But in the years I have been following oil companies I have never know a difference of over ten fold. Could you enlighten one of such little understanding with an example of such?

"Likewise I am suprised when such posters tot up development well test results additively with declining field rates with no acknowledgement of decline, ... and wrongly conclude "wow"."

~ So the drop from 2,650bopd to 250bopd within a day or two is declining field rates?

~ I would suggest that comparing the decline in an oil field to opening a champagne bottle 'is way to simplistic'.
