Samson Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: SSN) (NYSE AMEX: SSN) updated its report of last week on the re-stimulation of the Leonard #1-23H, after the flow back of this treatment was monitored for a period of three days before the well was placed back into production.

The well was stimulated with 98,000 pounds of high strength proppant using 18,000 barrels of stimulation fluid.

At the end of the 64 hour flow back period the well was flowing as follows:

At the conclusion of the flow back period, only 3,000 barrels of the 18,000 barrel treating fluid had been recovered. The oil cut was at 47% and it is expected that it will continue to increase until it produces at its historical oil cut of around 70%.

The well is currently producing without artificial lift and thus it is difficult to predict what oil rate the well will achieve in the long term once it is put back onto pump. However the current results are very encouraging, as this near term oil rate would be expected to be between 300 and 500 bopd.

Given the improvements that have been made in the stimulation design, it is expected that the next round of development wells will see improved results as this design will be applied to the total horizontal length of the wellbore. The production performance will be monitored and then a decision taken to drill the additional development wells in the balance of Samson’s acreage holding.

Samson has a 10% working interest in this well, though we have maintained a 30% equity interest in the balance of the 6,400 acreage block in the Bakken Formation.
