Classic Operating has filed for a permit {USA Courtney 2H} in the NA Middleton Survey {489} in Shelby County for a Travis Peak Horizontal.  Stated Target depth 8,700 ft. with total depth of 12,300, this would be a 3600 ft horizontal.  

Has any operator every drilled a Travis Peak horizontal in this area and if so what were the results.  Jffree maybe you could answer this of the top of you head.

adubu and jffree1,

From what I am told, by the TRRC, the total depth on the permit does not necessarily include the horizontal leg.

 This might explain some of the ambiguity in the statement from Classic. 

That is a possibility.

One reason it is a horizontal is that it is being drilled on private land and horizontaled out to the national forest.  It was landlocked; as you know, it is time consuming to work with govt. so they purchased private land.  They will just horizontal out to the govt.  This is a USA Unit.
