I have heard that test wells for horizonatal Cotton Valley have come in with over 200 barrels of great quality condensate a day. Has anyone else heard this

My friend contract with 3 major companies including Petrohawk (BHP0 and all 3 say their budgets are higher for ramped up drilling in 2012. ANd he thinks it is a liquids play they are after, not nat gas. Aren't these Cotton Valley wells horizontal ones and that is why IPs are so high?
I'm betting they are referring to company wide drilling budgets. No way companies are ramping up drilling in the Haynesville.
Springbranch and Scott, I never said the drilling would be in the Haynesville & my friend said they never said the Haynesville--just that drilling budgets for our area (which in my opinion includes the Arklatex) was budgeted for more drilling. Actually one company plans to move in 3 extra rigs. My friend tried to find out where the drilling would occur and into what formation and NO ONE would give up any info. That made us speculate that there had to be another play and perhaps it was a shallower play since some of these Cotton Valleys are coming in so high
Thanks for the info kcm, it is always encouraging to hear such positive "insider" news. Even it it turns out is not right in our backyard, it sounds good for the region in general.
I agree Abington. It was the first positive info I have had from anyone in months
The average CV HZ well comes in at an IP of about 5000MCFGD. (taken from data not just speculation) They are usually mainly gas producers. I'd love to see some more oily ones though. Good luck!
The walton does have some condensate but not anywhere near 200bopd

Do you know of any other CV HZ wells in Caddo Parish with higher condensate yields like you are talking about?
Which CV sand are these producing from? Taylor?
Interesting. Thanks for the info.
Jay do you think this wet gas line to Carthage is because they anticipate more condensate production in western LA?
KCM, it is typical to gather rich natural gas in a pipeline system for delivery to a processing plant for recovery of the natural gas liquids (NGLs). This can add value but must also occur to make the natural gas compliant with sales pipeline specifications. Condensate is recovered at the wellhead and typically trucked from the location.
Haynesville Shale gas is "lean" and not processed for NGL recovery.
Jay, are they targeting a particular formation or geographical location with this high BTU content?
Sorry just noticed that you had already answered that it is the Roseberry.
Is there a map showing the depths where this formation is located? Areas?

AboutAs exciting as this is, we know that we have a responsibility to do this thing correctly. After all, we want the farm to remain a place where the family can gather for another 80 years and beyond. This site was born out of these desires. Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
