Miller Energy Resources reported that the company has participated in a successful hydraulic fracturing operation on a well in Alaska, with the well responding with a large jump in production.

Miller Energy Resources said that Cook Inlet Energy, LLC, a subsidiary of the company, has a 30% non-operated interest in the Three Mile Creek Lease located in the Cook Inlet Basin in Alaska.
