EOG Resources’ (EOG) recent results in the northern Delaware Basin have been fantastic. The production of southern Lea County wells have been better than anywhere else in the US. These results are a sign of things to come, as wells continue to outperform. Two locations in the Rattlesnake pad produced more than 500 KBO in 12 months. The two newer locations are on pace to outproduce the first two wells in this pad.

EOG results are reliable as it has duplicated production at four locations. The high pressured geology seems better than Midland. This could be due to depth and/or natural gas content of the interval.

On a BOE basis, EOG’s Rattlesnake average type curve shows a second month spike that decreases significantly in the fifth month. This was probably due to the well being shut in as production rises to almost 80 MBOE in month eight.
