Breitling Energy spuds Steller Energy Cole #1 well in Texas

Breitling Energy Corporation announces the start of the drilling phase of the Steller Energy Cole #1 in northwestern Sterling County, Texas.   The proposed 8100 ft vertical well is scheduled to spud today in search of oil zones in the Wolfcamp lime and Cisco-Canyon sands.  The well is offsetting the Marathon #1 Cole that was completed in the Lower Wolfcamp formation in 1969, which intersected over 100 ft of limestone.

“We are participating in this prospect because it is a target play for our Company,” says Chris Faulkner, Breitling Energy’s CEO and Chairman.  It should intersect the most prolific zone in the Permian Basin and is in a favorable drilling area that we know very well.  The pipeline infrastructure here is excellent so lifting costs are minimal.  We’re excited to get another Permian well started,” Faulkner added.
