"In the second quarter we announced an expansion of our sizeable positionin British Columbia's Horn River and Louisiana's Haynesville natural gas shaleplays. At Horn River, two of our recently completed wells are producing at avery strong first-month average rate in excess of 5 million cubic feet per day(MMcf/d). At Haynesville, during a two-day test, the initial flow rate of asecond horizontal well was 15 MMcf/d. These well results are exceptional andare a strong indication that the addition of these plays has the potential toaccelerate the pace of our natural gas growth," Eresman said
This is good news; EnCana is looking to drop two wells in South Bossier (just south of Sligo Rd) within the next few months (one in our section and one in the section to the east of us). They have leased the majority of the minerals in our section and working with the remainder of us (at least they have in our area).
Bacon, I appreciate Ginger posting the transcript link. I was listening to the call and heard EnCana give the name of the well. It was also interesting to hear them dodge the question about the extent of the Haynesville Shale.
I heard discussion of this topic yesterday. I was told that the depth restriction I had in my lease may not protect me from drilling beyond the HS. I heard that the E & P's are trying to redefine the whole formation as JUR. The application by JW Operating may have been the first step.
I was told they are trying to combine the Cotton Valley, HS, Bossier, and Texas.
