BPX Laterals in Elm Grove Field, Bossier

Received a letter indicating BPX plans a couple of cross unit horizontal wells in Sections 13 and 14 in Bossier Parish. I was under the impression that that shallow field had been played out as my royalties from that area have trickled to practically nothing. Curious if any others with mineral interests in that area know anything about this.

I would have posted this question on the Bossier sub-site but the last posting there appears to have been over a year ago.

Les, there are a number of Section 13s and 14s in the Elm Grove Field.  It's a big field. An informed response would require knowing the township in addition to the section numbers.

Les, that alternate well application for BPX in the Elm Grove Field was entered in the database this afternoon.  One of the three HC wells is a first.  A different design of a U-Turn well.  It goes  down through sections 1&12&13 and then makes a U-Turn to the west and drills north up through Section 14.  It is the green octagon symbol on the well plat.

Yes, I should have been more specific with the Township and Section numbers. Thanks for the comments and map. Glad to see BPX sees potential there.
