This paper discusses the design and execution and results of a Horizontal Antrim Shale well drilled to a depth of 3300' MD with a TVD of 852'. The well was cased with 5 ½" casing to TD, perforated and fractured in six isolated intervals. Drilling methods presented will be: drilling and running casing with a pull down top drive drilling rig. Pull down technology enabled the drilling and casing the hole with a KOP of 100'. Coil tubing completion methods presented are perforating and zone isolation methods allowing multiple stages in one day. Six separate intervals were successfully hydraulically fractured with foam fluid treatments. Design and observations of treatments will be given.
