Dallas independent Torchlight Energy has drilled a wildcat test in the Orogrande Basin, 30 miles east of El Paso, Texas. The geology appears to be an analog for the Midland Basin Wolfcamp play. Will McAndrew III, COO for Torchlight Energy, outlines what the well’s cores reveal and confirms that the company has entered a $50 million partnership to complete the pilot and develop Torchlight’s 168,000 acre Orogrande Basin position.
