Do you mean the equipment will take time to set back up? Oil wells actually produce a bit better for a while after they sit, because pressure gradients slowly equalize.

in 90s, russian oil production dropped by almost half, and rebuilding that output took some 20 years. i thought it was because when you stop using oil well, all these sediments settle and over time it becomes harder to draw oil from it. or was it all undermaintained and they just capped a bunch of wells back then?
