However, as the Diesel oil in the fracturing job on the Dakota froze into the connate water. Output from this section was limited. Recently, the section was restimulated and the oil freed from the formation face (with explosive results, as it moved into the separator causing' it to blow up). In any event, the open flow from the Dakota has been hiked from one million to four million, giving dually completed (Ferron-Dakot- a) flow of 12 million feet of natural gas. daily Deliverability against a 550 line back pressure reduces the output and sales from the wells at this time only about 500,000 cubic feet daily could be added to the Dakota section, for example.
