Most of the cost is up front. It takes a lot lower price than this to take any significant amount of wells out of production.

Is it a misconception that every section of horizontal is not initially fraced, which would leave other sections available for another frac when production ramp-up is needed?

That’s a great point. Once the upfront costs (sunk costs) are paid up the marginal productivity is profit.
