L514 is doubling up in Flint. Will be 9400 feet WB/SB to Moterm. Mostly empty wells including the ones that were stored in Durand Yard for the last week or so. Those were picked up and taken to Flint yesterday or overnight.

Shaping up for a Q117/119/189 to run out of Moterm overnight or tomorrow sometime.
