Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Ceja Corp. has scheduled a 3,500-ft exploratory test in Clinton County, Ill. The well, #1 Glennon, is targeting Trenton oil pays and will be drilled in Section 26-1n-4w. About 1 mile to the southwest in Section 35 are two wildcats that were permitted in mid-2018 by Ronald G. Lockwood. The #1-L Kuhlengel and #2-L Kuhlengel both have planned depths of 2,650 ft and are targeting oil pays in Edgewood Lime. Most of the previous drilling in the area has been much shallower, and earlier tests in this part of Clinton County reached total depths of 1,500 ft or less. Nearby production is about 1.5 miles to the northeast of #1 Glennon in Bartelso West Field, which was opened in 1945. The field mostly produces crude from Silurian at about 2,450 ft. Ceja’s headquarters are in Tulsa.
