Go to http://www.sonris.com/
Select DATA ACCESS, LITE; Select "WELLS BY PARISH", Select "E. Feliciana", Scroll down to the bottom. The bottom well is the most recent permitted. I will be tracking drilling activity in the play on our website:

Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
