The Donner well is not a Haynesville Shale well at 7050 feet, I would say it is a James Lime well, ask Jay the Geologist.

You are correct. It looks to be a James Lime well but on the permit that was issued it shows to be in the Austin Chalk. Go figure.

Maybe it is a Austin Chalk well, the chalk can produce some good numbers. It was the deal back in the mid to later 90's. I worked it buying leases for Chesapeake back then in Rapides and Evangeline Parishes.

Chesapeake still has some good wells in Vernon that are Austin Chalk. I have land in Sabine Parish on the Vernon line and we are watching the Donner well very close. Do you have any idea why the Austin Chalk died down?

Everything went to crap in late 97, oil and gas went on a downhill slide, put me on the street, I did cell phone towers for about two years. I have no idea why the Austin Chalk hasn't come back into play. Guess they want 8 million and above in production and maybe the chalk can't do that.

I'm supposed to close with Chesapeake this week - $12,500/per. A few miles south of Pleasant Hill - Spring Rigde area.
