The more I think about it, the more I convince myself that whatever they have down there is very small and the flowrate dropped right off. It just seems to make sense.
I think they want to know for certain what is down there, hence the testing crew coming back, but I think they had to shut it in to build up pressure again, and rather than leave the rig there doing nothing during the build up, they decided to ship it off.
If they were still going at ~3000 bbl/d why would they bother doing this when it would have only taken a day or two more to find out what the formation fluid is?
