As expected, we retrieved our stiff drill pipe and used mill bit today. We immediately replaced it with a new mill bit, one shaped differently and better suited to cut through the side of the casing. By the end of the day, we had drilled to a depth of ~9800 feet. Hopefully we will make it all the way through the casing tomorrow morning.
