From Jianing Song, Jan 27 2019: (Start)
All terms except the first are congruent to 7, 11, 13 or 14 modulo 15. If we define
Pi(N,b) = # {p prime, p <= N, p == b (mod 15)};
Q(N) = # {p prime, 2 < p <= N, p in this sequence},
then by Artin's conjecture, Q(N) ~ (94/95)*C*N/log(N) ~ (188/95)*C*(Pi(N,7) + Pi(N,11) + Pi(N,13) + Pi(N,14)), where C = A005596 is Artin's constant.
Conjecture: if we further define
Q(N,b) = # {p prime, p <= N, p == b (mod 15), p in this sequence},
then we have:
Q(N,7) ~ (10/47)*Q(N) ~ ( 80/95)*C*Pi(N,7);
Q(N,11) ~ (12/47)*Q(N) ~ ( 96/95)*C*Pi(N,11);
Q(N,13) ~ (10/47)*Q(N) ~ ( 80/95)*C*Pi(N,13);
Q(N,14) ~ (15/47)*Q(N) ~ (120/95)*C*Pi(N,14).
