Super Drilling Pads Planned For Sabine County, Texas

There are plans to build Super Pads for drilling the Haynesville and Bossier shale wells in Sabine County, Texas. These Super Pads are necessary for drilling these wells to save money on location expense and for developing the natural gas reserves in and around the National Forest lands. There could be as many as 10-15 wells from each Super Pad. Chesapeake Energy has entered into the northern Sabine County to drill two wells and will probably lead the way as to Super Pad drilling of multiple wells to fully develope their leaseholds in the county. These Super Pads will also allow the operator to skid a drilling rig with limited expense. Total savings are very significant with the Super Pads.

Cheerleader

If you think that Oilvoice.com is always ahead of the game, that is your prerogative. Those that follow the play for a living know differently. I take no offense in your touting them as an expert source with the one exception that some member might actually make a decision regarding their minerals based on faulty information and trust that you will allow me the same courtesy when I point out that they tout minor companies for pay. Have you given any thought to how these Internet companies make money? Do you believe that they post their articles for free? If you were to actually listen to a few conference calls you would know that less than positive comments are common. Low nat gas prices, difficulty maintaining hedge positions, admissions of mechanical problems with wells, statements that significant portions of leasehold are not prospective for the Haynesville Shale, lack of access to pumping services, etc. The SEC frowns upon intentional falsehoods in the publications of publicly traded companies. I appreciate your kind offer of the cheerleading camp and gladly accept. Please send the high energy young girls to Montgomery County, AR. for July 4th. I'll reserve the bunk house for them.

Southern Texas Haynesville and Bossier Activity Increasing

San Augustine,Shelby and Sabine Counties of Texas have the Motherload of gas in the Haynesville and Bossier shale. Several companies that are active in Louisiana are planning on increasing drilling in Texas within a few months to get in on the action on drilling these formations. Texas is gaining momentum every day on drilling the deeper part of these great formations mentioned. The major pipeline companies should concentrate on the southern part more than the northern part in Texas and Louisiana if they want to move more gas that will be produced in the future in Texas and Louisiana.The southern part of this Texas play is going to explode with drilling activity within the next year from now.

They sure talk a lot about the Southern part of the play but I have not read or seen their prediction on just how far South the play goes.
Skip,
You will have to be more specific than "Montgomery County, AR" otherwise the "401" of us can't find you. I'm not sure about the bunk house accommodations. These cheerleaders are very High Maintenance...and since I am the Princess of High Maintenance Cheerleaders I have to ask.
Do your "bunk beds" have 800 thread count sheets???
JWC. IMO, OilVoice doesn't say, because they don't know. All their reports that I have reviewed are characterized by very general statements and a level of exuberance not found in the reports of operators and midstream companies. That the southern portion of the play in E. TX. is more prospective than the north is old news. Pipeline companies recognized that a long time ago and implemented plans to increase capacity in that general area and to tie into the upgraded transport system in NW. LA. I suggest that those interested in specific information from vastly more reliable sources concentrate on the public reports of the major operators involved in Haynesville/Bossier development. The latest and most detailed is the Petrohawk presentation including their EUR Core Map. If the "motherload" is defined as the most productive area of the play, it would be the 10 bcf and 8 bcf contours in NW. LA. However the 4 bcf contour line extends into and encompasses a good deal of acreage in E. TX. and includes a core of 6 bcf. That E. TX. area is highly prospective and will draw development interest from a number of major shale players. Those who wish to deal in specifics should review the map and make it a part of their deliberations regarding the management of their mineral estate. The site contains a good discussion concerning the map which can be accessed through the following link:

I agree skip. They really don't know the boundaries or they would comment on them although I will say that one of their first comments that I read way back was how the Southern part of the play would be deeper and hotter but very productive. (Wish I could find that one). Still a lot of land to be de-risked in E. Texas. I have not been leased but our land falls in the Southern part of the 4 BCF region of the Petrohawks map. We are patiiently waiting.
Here is a post from JE on June 8, 2008:

Northern Half of Sabine And San Augustine Counties, Texas
This could be the mother load of gas reserves as to the Haynesville Shale Play. Its going to be high pressure and hot as to bottom hole temperature, but the reserves should be great. When you combine the James Lime, Pettit,Cotton Valley, Haynesville and Smackover potential one should conclude the risk versus reward potential for the counties is very good.
You guys are super Motherload cheer guys. You are posting these entries before I can read them.
Skip beware....these guys are under the "Motherload spell".
That's what I'm concerned about Cheerleader. LOL!
Log Cabin Lane on Beech Creek about 3 miles from the Black Springs store on Hwy. 8. Yes, there are sheets in the bunk house. What's a "800 thread count"?
Good stuff...LOL..
Woven from 100% Egyptian cotton. [OR 1000 thread count]
Is it available at Tractor Supply?
