? INCREASING WELL PRODUCTION:?? referring to KGS open file re[port 202-25c, prepared by Hecoy, Macfarlane, Wilson; I want to change the?K( hydraulic conductivity)?of Ogallala formation by artificially-Induced fracturing.? The proposal is to drill 3- 6-8 inch wells in a 50 ft radius from the producing well, charging each well with high explosives. This action, in effect, would?cause the producing well to act as if the diameter was a 100 feet instead of 16-18 inches.? Present well produces ~25 gpm from 45 ft of saturated, consolidated formation.? The wells from this general?location have been produced open hole (no casing).? In late '30's to early 40's production was ~6oo-900 gpm.? SWL has been stable for ~10 years.? My interest is to increase production to ~250 gpm.? My primary interest is the amount of high explosive to charge each of the 3 wells with????RUSSELL??
