Recommended Development Pathway
Water Cut Analysis Required

Infrastructure gap and unproven formation performance in this northern extension make economics uncertain. Flow test will clarify water cut and deliverability.

Six-Driver Viability Assessment · Avg 50/100

Reservoir Potential

55/100

Niobrara in northern extension of DJ Basin — less data density than core Colorado acreage. Reservoir performance uncertain.

Wellbore Condition

62/100

Casing acceptable. Need 30-day flow test to determine current water cut before capital commitment.

Field Redevelopment

44/100

No horizontal development within 4 miles. Isolated vertical location — development pattern unproven here.

Infrastructure Readiness

41/100

5.8 miles to nearest gathering connection. Significant infrastructure capital required.

Regulatory Clarity

51/100

Wyoming OSLI permit — longer timeline than Colorado COGCC. 90-day estimate.

Environmental Profile

48/100

No issues on record. Remote location minimizes community risk.
