  1. Set Number of Multilaterals to zero with comment: "This parameter is set to 0 because, for this case study, the cost of horizontal drilling (which would otherwise account for approximately 118 multilateral sections) is included within the 'vertical drilling cost.' This approach allows us to more directly convey the overall well drilling and completion cost, which is under $4 million." https://github.com/softwareengineerprogrammer/GEOPHIRES/pull/80/files#diff-4c74f5cca6c379d27c945d138d703e4ef20d0abb1cd07282659e5b336e45ce2dR79
  2. Switch to Reservoir Volume Option 1 (FRAC_NUM_SEP), fixing previously slightly erroneous total number of fractures and reservoir volume (no functional effect on results) https://github.com/softwareengineerprogrammer/GEOPHIRES/pull/81/files#diff-4c74f5cca6c379d27c945d138d703e4ef20d0abb1cd07282659e5b336e45ce2dR53-R54. (Note this also makes the input better-suited for Monte Carlo simulations)
  3. Update case study documentation accordingly
  4. Add unit test for case study documentation that checks that documented values match actual result values
  5. Add documentation/tooltip text for:
    1. Number of Multilateral Sections: https://github.com/softwareengineerprogrammer/GEOPHIRES/pull/80/files#diff-3d85ef79807fc6c25a758a698fd3a7095750bd27ea52341700e1dad94885b5f6R950
    2. Drilling and completion costs per well: https://github.com/softwareengineerprogrammer/GEOPHIRES/pull/80/files#diff-297987ad3d14c84ee6385298fa35b4691491b3cf35c15c45c23a1ea23b01c3ccR336
