The well was drilled in the Viola limestone formation in Jefferson County, Oklahoma. While this well was not successful for technical reasons, it led to the application of the horizontal concept to Mississippian limestones, pending advances in technology. With the success of horizontal shale wells, it became apparent that the technology had advanced sufficiently to re-consider it’s application to traditional oil reservoir rocks.
