Ann: Successful Placement for Sacramento Basin Operations, page-15

this time they go in, they will be using the latest state of the art eqipement, and will be expecting the extreme pressures that were on display back when it was initially tested (albeit for oil)...

".........the flow stage of the open hole test in the Stoney Creek Formation failed almost immediately as the test equipment in the well bore was dislodged by high pressures. The two wells that drilled significant portions of the Stoney Creek Formation – James 1 (1947) and Alvares 1 (1982) flowed natural gas to surface from Stoney Creek reservoirs when oil was the commercial focus. Under the revised program, the well bore will be assessed for its suitability for directly flow testing various gas saturated reservoirs interpreted from petrophysical and mud logs, and seismic in the Alvares well. The target Stoney Creek Formation at Alvares is separate from, and older than any of the formations tested at Dempsey or Tulainyo. Stoney Creek rocks have only rarely been drilled in the 100 years of exploration in the Sacramento Basin."
