Ya,

I'll stick by my Wed next week timing to have the well back flowing but looking at where they are now it may actually be a few days earler.

They will be sidetracking out of 7" liner (6" hole) and 5" or 4-1/2" pre-drilled or slotted (even NDO don't seem to know which) liner.

There are train-wreck scenarios which could happen with the physical well construction - could turn a whipstock, not be able to get back through the window, stick a liner hanger running tool and probably a few more... but those are small small likelyhood and how unlucky do you feel?

As for conductive faults - I think that they would have considered it and had a look at any faults which crossed the original wellbore on the image log - they would have been pouring over that looking for the water source... giving up on fishing (retrieve) guns and logging means that they are 99% sure that the liner is uncemented - otherwise they would take the time to fish and log.

In any case - if they have put as much cement out through those perfs as I would (and I bet they have) then any conductive fault or fracture is pretty much full of cement.

I'm still confident that we will have an excellent result here!
