"I remember having a conversation with a friend in 2008 once the Haynesville busted loose and said that the oil/gas industry seems to always shoot themselves in the foot in that they overdrill in a good play or market and it leads to oversupply.

Infill drilling way down the line (spacing / benches)
8 Replies
Anyone have an opinion on this? This is pertaining to any given reservoir bench. Take any given unit that has been developed, whether it's four, six, eight laterals. In the early days, eight was…Continue

And I thought $2.50 nat gas was bad

Have you seen the nat gas futures price? Down to $1.58 right now. Unreal.Continue

Obtaining producing well upgrade info on a well
9 Replies
Does anyone know if you can view what "major" work has been done on a well? Is a permit or a report required if they do something significant to improve the production, such as a refrac? Or install…Continue

How to find reported well costs
5 Replies
An early Louisiana Haynesville well... how, exactly, does one find the total drilling and completion costs of a well? I guess this is reported for severance tax issues; when does the operator make…Continue

"The nat gas market is very disappointing from a mineral owner standpoint. The Haynesville play is about 17 years old. I would have never thought that since then, other than the Ukraine war spike in 2022 that we would have $3 gas in 2025. And that is…"
Ryan Howrish replied to Hale Yayuh's discussion Infill drilling way down the line (spacing / benches)"Skip - I've attached a brief economic analysis of the refrac that you shared the AFE notice for.
Aethon Refrac Summary
Here is my summary:
My forecast estimates the refrac added an additional 3.4 bcf of reserves.
This equates to 0.77…"
Ryan Howrish replied to Hale Yayuh's discussion Infill drilling way down the line (spacing / benches)"Re-fracs are an interesting operation. What is the intended purpose of a re-frac? Is it to protect existing reserves from the frac of a new well? Is it just to increase production on an old well to ensure it is producing in paying…"
Ryan Howrish replied to Hale Yayuh's discussion Infill drilling way down the line (spacing / benches)"Great questions! I will answer the easy question first - bottom hole pressure absolutely matters in shales. Look at the productivity of wells in the far northern extents of the play vs. wells in the core. They are not the same.Your…"
Infill drilling way down the line (spacing / benches)
Anyone have an opinion on this? This is pertaining to any given reservoir bench. Take any given unit that has been developed, whether it's four, six, eight laterals. In the early days, eight was common and would be laterals every 660 feet. Now, you see a lot of units with 'only' four laterals, so, double that spacing. Whether, it's four, six or eight, do you think that it's possible that drainage of each lateral is or will be much less than originally thought? And that more laterals could be…See More
"Yes, I see now that it is a J-turn well. Which is doubly impressive in that it's so long. Sheesh."
"I don't see a 4-mile lateral on that notice, I see 3-mile, but I am sure it happened. Amazing that they can drill that far. Main question... what did they say about EUR? I would EUR per lateral foot would not increase, only total EUR per…"
"I had a friend tell me yesterday to get ready for $9 nat gas due to this thread's topic. I rolled my eyes. This friend believes anything Fox says and I'm not exaggerating; they are the leading authority in this friend's world. Which…"
"I didn't compose my last post very well. What I was saying is that if a company wants to drill right under a section line, surely they would propose some kind of sharing arrangement between the sections to each side of the lateral. And that…"
"I don't understand how a company could drill a well without knowing how it will be allocated. Surely that is known prior to spud. I must be missing something here."
"Something that people need to understand is that a very large percentage of the factors going into how much a company received back (if anything) are uncertain. The oil biz is rife with uncertainty. You could have everything perfect (as it can be)…"
"One thing to be aware of is to never, ever, ever depend on oil/gas income. It varies and sometimes, a lot. You take what you get. Also, communication with your operator is usually very problematic. Looking at it from their standpoint, there are a…"
"The guy in charge of this country thinks he's an Einstein about everything and he's actually hugely incompetent and I've voted GOP most of my life. I am very, very worried about natural gas (and oil). And the general economy. We are…"
"I am all for renewable energy. Remains to be seen if it's going to work long-term. The economics, the resource drain, safety. As for wind turbines, I don't like looking at them! I would be aghast if I had my dream parcel of land and…"
"Yes, Skip, as Jesse said in this thread -- the truth is the truth. And I, for one, am not remaining silent anymore. I'm tired of his b.s., he can't tell the truth and tomorrow, the lie will be different but it will be a lie, and I am…"
