For the record I said I’m a whopping 5’5” and half a midget but @russellgold had to explain why he couldn’t put that in his article 🤣

I should let ai fix this but I’m going to just let it fly. It’s a good day. All the trials and tribulations of owning oil wells have taught me a lot of the last many years. We are in a habit of betting on ourselves and I throttled that by taking out a serious loan to launch a new venture. The new product launch coming for a myriad of management, regulatory and accounting that syncs with remote sensing will be fun to watch as people who’ve been begging for a system that gives them real management, real usable tools, and for a price that can stack 500 wells under $150 a month total. The engineers and developers who’ve dealt me for two years now are finally about to see some fun. The task was difficult and as we expand to more bolt ons it will never be easy but here we are. The challenge before, present and the future for what we are building: -Staying at the edge of new technology isn’t extremely difficult when that’s your sole purpose. -Keeping a user interface that doesn’t require constant YouTube tutorials to learn the system isn’t by itself difficult -making a system that costs 95% less than others by itself difficult. Combining all of this into a service and line of products however has been extremely challenging. The backend of these systems have been trial and error, scrapping project after project to get it to work. I am at a confident place now to release the management software in the coming month as it has been tested to no end.

I’m but a small oil well operator owner and historical document researcher. My car has 300k+ miles. My house is small. I’m like many blue collar mom and pop business owners in Texas just trying to chase the American dream. A few years ago I went to help a west Texas rancher whose ranch had significant problems with 30 year old plugged wells breaking out (blowing out). Clearly something was wrong and through researching of public documents submitted to the state I found a California super major called @chevron had broken law after law the rest of us must follow. The very point of these laws is to protect and prevent what was occurring. Whether it be injection 50,000+ bbls of brine into a well in a month that wasn’t supposed to exceed 6,000 bbls, or claiming that they were the land owners when filing injection permits (they weren’t). I also had the joy of witnessing first hand as they went into a “plugged well” with a coiled tubing unit and it didn’t have a single plug in. I very quickly began to notice a pattern with chevron. Not only in west Texas but other states as well, plugged wells were breaching surface with brine and as seen in California, some were spewing oil as well. This hasn’t been a fun walk for me, but I’ve learned doing the right thing can be a lonely road. After all it’s not every day an oil man steps outside the industry to help an “outsider” being a rancher against an oil company and especially when that oil company pays out billions a year in dividends. I say all this to say I’ve come to the conclusion that I will be liquidating my holdings over the coming weeks and going to work full time helping both state and federal authorities get a better grasp of the things @chevron has done. Antina Ranch in west Texas isn’t an anomaly or a case of bad field guys. Based on my research and documentation this is a multistate and country issue for that manor with them. As I listened to Elon and Trump tonight I read over this massive paperwork I was served today with by Chevron. Maybe intimidation, maybe just pure stupidity on their part but let’s see what happens when the guy who knows where all the historical documents gathering dust starts putting those documents in the hands of justice. As Katt Williams says 2024 all that is dark will be brought to the light. We shall see what happens from here. P.s. I am not suicidal

So a California company being @Chevron over-injected and destroyed west Texas ranches and they now want to subpoena me and waste my time because I pointed out their publicly submitted documents to the state admitting their fuck ups. I would be in prison for doing what they have done as an operator. So here’s what I’m going to do, I’m going to make a google drive of the following so that the @EPA and state environmental agencies, as well as class action lawyers can download. It will contain the following: Known casing failures and MIT failures near contamination sites every well in Texas they plugged with mud and not cement as required. Every brine and oil storage pit that they didn’t properly clean up Every asbestos pipeline for which they didn’t remediate running through cities. FAFO is officially on.

Go watch Sound of Freedom, pull your head out of the sand and see that this once great country is increasingly consuming child sex trafficking. Notice how now the gov. wants you to tolerate “MAP’s” Gods children are not for sale, and you need to wake the Fk up. Link below

If you are are smarter than GLJ, Obsidian or IHS Markit have at er bro. 103/10-22-020- 12W4 meet and exceed expectations, with very good porosity, high permeability, and the capability to drain, at a minimum, four square miles of reservoir. IHS Markit's analysis is consistent with results from the blow-out well 100/13-22-020-12W4. More specifically, the reservoir in 103/10-22 is over pressured with a P* of 2,433 psia, a porosity of 15%, a permeability of 60 to 80 milli-Darcies, and an Absolute Open Flow of 22.6 mmcfd. Furthermore, the 103/10-22 well is capable of a sustained production rate between 5 to 8 mmcfd at a surface pressure of 1,000 psi with less than a 15% sandface drawdown for a minimum of three years before decline.

PER IHS MARKIT: AOF 13.3MMCF/D ACTUAL EXPECTED PRODUCTION 2.5MMCF/D The lack of accountability in some of these companies is sad to me. Having actually played in the helium game I can say with confidence, Royal Helium isn't where I would put my cash

2 wells combined are 15mmcf/day. 1 well is choked back more than the other so it’s not exactly half and half but is 15 combined
Joshua Pollard@JoshuaPollard

@deannawata The plant is designed for 15mmcf/d, not that their wells are cranking out 15mmcf/d

The world has harvested freedoms from the seeds planted with the massive sacrifices made 79 years ago. The strength of that generation has made modern generations a disgrace embroiled in false victim ideology when in reality a human has never had it better on Earth than the modern day west human. We live in a world now that considers yelling at people to wear a mask, a brave action. Thank you to the fallen and my apologies for an ungrateful nation of false victims
