Ok guys, first of all let me caveat the below with 'i've got no idea what the hell i'm talking about'. But i've had a bit of a crack with the numbers given so far.. to estimate the flowback rate so far. This could be way off the mark, but thought it would help me to understand if this isn't flowing at all.. or possible the scale of any issues."with over one million lbs of proppant placed into the formation" - 1,000,000 lbs of fracking fluid."Flowback commenced on the 19th of June" - Began on the 19th of June."Percentage of fluid recovered to date is ~13% of total fluid pumped" - 13% recovered as of the afternoon of the 25th alaskan time.

Thinking about this a little bit more.. makes me a bit more nervous. There would be an initial overpressure from the frac which would I imagine skew the early flow rate.
