A while back there was a post about a well drilling for LA minerals being situated on the TX side of Toledo Bend Lake - why would this be done and could this be a pattern for other wells drilling under the lake? What advantage does this give the operator? From what I remember of the disscusion this would not affect the royalties.

Shaleeee, the well surface location was the closest land site available for the sections located below the lake. It should not affect the royalties.
The operator can do this without getting into the TX landowner's minerals????
Shaleeee, definitely - just drill the horizontal lateral on the Louisiana side and only perforate and frac in the Louisiana Haynesville Unit.
Les B, would you let us know if you see an IP on the Forest well Shaleeee is referring to? It may not show up over here and there was some interest, in the results, in Shelby and Sabine Counties.

The well is VUB; Blackstone Minerals "H" #1, 419-31527, on this side but I don't know how it is styled in La. or what the serial # is.
Jffree1, please see the two attached documents. Well #1 was spud 1/17/10 but encountered problems in early May.

Les, thanks - Wheww! What a paper trail - all of this type of drilling is simply amazing - who would have "thunk it" makes me think of the old comic books that pictured futuristic highways crossing over more highways in the sky and space ships and it came to be - and now drilling from state to state and underwater!!!!! High Tech world we live in . . . Showing my age!! LOL
Thanks Les.
