This study analyzed the results of 218 infill wells drilled in the Robertson Clearfork Unit (RCU), Gaines County, TX. This program increased ultimate recovery by more than 23 million bbl (3.7 x 10/sup 6/ m/sup 3/). The individual well performance, as a function of reservoir continuity, was analyzed quantitatively with pressure correlations, numerical analyses, and geologic study.
