#238,281. Reported IP of 23.3 mmcfd, 28/64 choke. 7,250# CP. HK operated. SONRIS reports fracing on January 22 and flowing back on Feb. 3.

XCO reported Oden well did 1 bcf in first 64 days, with an IP rate of 22.9 mmcfd.

It will be interesting to see the decline rates that develop from the "monster" 20+ mmcfd, high pressure wells.

238532# reported IP of 14.4 completed 12/31/08 I see no production figures on sonrise as of yet. How can I find these figures?

You can't until they report them, unless you know someone with the company.

Jay, Skip and Others,

As long as we are talking about Griffith 11, please look at slide 16 and 17 of the SSEY presentation
http://www.ssenergyinc.com/i/pdf/SSEY_Corporate_Overview_March09.pdf.

The yellow diamond well on slide 16 in Desoto Ph is Griffith 11. How do you interpret this slide for Griffith 11. What is Average Interval Log Porosity Feet vs. Average Interval Log Sw? I have been told that Griffith has 173' of HA.

Next, look at slide 17. What does Phi H mean? Clearly, Griffith is off the charts relative to the other wells! Also, I think Net/Gross is understandible, but correct me if I am wrong that it is the net pay thickness to the gross thickness. Here Adcock is off the charts at 90%, but Griffith 11 is second at 70%.

Now can you tie the three charts together for me. If Griffith 11 has 173' of HA. thickness, is it 70%, or 121', of net pay? Then what does Average Interval Log Porosity and Phi H mean?

Can you explain slide 16 Average Interval Log Porosity? Is Phi H porosity?

WR, the Griffith 11 likely had 173' of net HS thickness so the gross thickness would have been ~ 247'. Porosity-Feet (Phi H) should just be thickness times the average porosity but I am not sure if the calculation is based on the gross interval or just the net pay. I would assume Sw represents the water saturation %.

My primary take-away is the Haynesville Shale interval thickens to the north but the net/gross and porosity decrease which lowers the initial flow rate. This may require a different completion technique for wells on the northern edge. The Southern Star wells look good since their Phi-H is comparable to wells with good initial rates.

Thanks Les. I will try to get more data on porosity in general.
