The company also recompleted its Andrus Island #1 well in a shallower zone that flowed 950,000 cubic feet of natural gas per day with a strong flowing tubing pressure of 1700 lbs. Because the formation is extremely porous, initial sales will be restricted at 400,000 cubic feet per day to prevent the possibility of the well producing sand. Sales will begin immediately. The Andrus Island East prospect will be drilled in the 2^nd quarter of 2008.
