Thanks for the update Les. I hope for some good wells for the folks in the Jamestown area. Would anyone care to speculate how far north and east the play may go. R7 in the central part would not surprise me.
Catfish, since I don't have a reputation at stake, at least one I would bragg about are get out of the closet(lol), I like T22N for ranges 7W and 8W, depending on the depth of the shale in the trench, and on the slopes. Will be interesting to say the least.
What do you mean by on the slopes? The uplifts?
The salt basin slopes downward toward the center and is reflected in the formation depths toward the east of the sabine uplift and rises upward further east toward the monroe uplift the way I understand it. The basin was created through subsidence from the uplifts and cooling of the crust. This depression in the basin should have provided a highly inoxic environment for the preservation of the critters that the shale is derived from and prevented their decay until coverage and sealed with sediments. This is strictly layman on my part, there are others that are the experts, hopefully Jay may give us a guess as to catfish's question. Just know there are some deep wells, 12,000 plus feet in the Dykesville area that had bottom hole pressures greater than 8,000 psi. and were drilled back in the 80's.
I agree.
