There are always choices.
As I posted before, one of the many choices was to put JB#1 on production, at only 500 bbls, @ $100/bbl, thats $1.5 mil per month.
And we know that it was 800 bbls before the workover, so actual post workover production would be much higer, and I've speculated here that it could be 1,500 bbls per day.
The method used did more than double production in the Alberta wells Dwayne had used it on.
