Rexsh, I remember some of the first info coming out of K4 was from a poster who turned out to have reliable accounts of what was happening on site. He basically said bad news, K4 has screened out. For those requiring clarification of screening out (as I did):

http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/Terms/s/screen_out.aspx

"A condition that occurs when the solids carried in a treatment fluid, such as proppant in a fracture fluid, create a bridge across the perforations or similar restricted flow area. This creates a sudden and significant restriction to fluid flow that causes a rapid rise in pump pressure."

Also rexsh or PSI, not looking to point fingers as I'm just trying to compare what was then and what is now, but in relation to rexsh's comments re the execution of K4, would that have been an all-around stuff-up by management and Condor (the contractor)? Or did one party stuff up more than the other? Only wishing to understand. As has been mentioned, current management is at a completely different level and the Halliburton team is the bee's knees.  Obviously, the geomechanics study by Schlumberger has made a huge difference too. It sure has been a great lead-up.
