I clicked your link and the map is there. When the page first comes up it looks like a google earth map of north america. Ehen you select 'Texas' then the county you want it zooms in.

Thanks intrepid. It's only taken an hour but I figured it out. RBH, load the page with the map and then go to the Explorer toolbar and click Page. A list will open and then scroll down to "Compatibility View settings". Click on that and a box will open. The page link will appear in an activity line and will say add this website. Click the add button. The page will refresh and you will be able to view the map. Voila!

How many mmcf is this well producing daily?

East Texas Drilling Report 3-06-10
Shelby County

The Peace Well No. 1H is 4.3 miles southeast of Center in the Carthage Field. Noble Energy completed the well to 17,238 feet. On a 18/64-inch choke the well potentialed 6.250 million cubic feet of gas in the Haynesville Shale.

Thanks, jffree. We are in the Sanford Lease neighboring the Peace Well. Hopefully it will be this
good.

Jffree, do you happen to know the flowing pressure on the 6.25 million cu ft/day with 18/64 choke for the Peace well?

No I don't, sorry. That report came out of the East Texas Drilling Report on March 5 and all they give is IP, total depth and choke. The completion report is not posted yet on TRRC but may be available from a subscription service.

Jffree, you folks are more familiar with the Texas side of the play than I am, but it would seem to me that if the Peace No. 1H was completed in the Haynesville, at a 6.25 million/day IP, there had better be a darn good Bossier section above it to justify Noble spending the $9 or $10 million they spent to drill and complete this well. Aside from the wells drilled down on the San Augustine border or near the Louisiana border, have there been any 10-15million/day type wells drilled in the heart of Shelby Co. yet. I'm trying to learn all aI can about the play in Shelby Co. and certainly hope it is a big producing Haynesville/Bossier county.

SB,

Les B.'s March list of best Texas shale wells shows only two in Shelby over 8 mmcf/day IP so far. The Mary Harris and Horned Frogs wells. Les posts regular updates within the Texas Shale Activity group:

http://www.gohaynesvilleshale.com/forum/categories/texas-shale-acti...

Also D. Gaar just posted a list of all shale wells permitted so far in Shelby in 2010 with links to their RRC maps that he is planning to update every couple of weeks:

Thanks, Ledlights, D Gaar's list of permitted wells has been enormously helpful to one who isn't familiar to the RR commission website such as myself. I forgot about looking at Les B's list of HOF wells in Texas. I'm just wondering out loud what kind of EUR's these Texas wells that have IP's of 4 million -8 million ft/day have and whether they will justify a $8-$10 million well at the current gas price. I have read where the wells in Texas have a less sloped decline curve.

Do we have enough information to project much about "central" Shelby County yet? It seems that the prospects on the east edge (does the DeSoto trend just stop at the lake?) and the southwest edge may be good (the Red River 620 horizontal just completed crosses from San Augustine into Shelby County), but in between how good will it be? The recent graphic from the TRRC posted here shows 8 completed shale wells in Shelby (I am not sure about a couple of dots on the county borders). So that indicates there have been about 6 drilled so far with IPs less than 8 mmcf/d? Maybe someone else can speak about the experience/learning curves of the drillers of those wells.

If the wells do cost $8 - $10 million, the usual decline curves stated for HS wells show the break even point occurring in that range you are speculating about - 4 - 8 mmcf/d IP when the gas price is around $5/mcf.

If many of the new permits are drilled we will not have too long to wait to learn more.
