<p>Top of Austin Chalk in this area is below 15,000' based on the old deep Amoco well that is 1.3 miles due west of this EOG location.</p>
<p>Although well permitted to 17,100' as a vertical AC test, EOG stopped at this point (around 13,900') - could be due to mechanical issues (this depth was a key casing point in the aforementioned Amoco deep test).</p>

<p>Log filed on 9/12/19 for this well in SONRIS confirms that this well never reached the Austin Chalk and that all the completion attempts were in the various clastic / sand packages located above the AC. These may be called Lower Wilcox (Eocene) or Upper Cretaceous Sands (Olmos / Navarro / etc)..</p>
<p>The "Austin Chalk" notation in SONRIS is just an error.</p>

<p>I am no geologist but note in the SONRIS work permits all refer their perforations as "Austin Chalk." I suppose one can title one's work request as one wants to do that. It is clear they drilled down to where they wanted to drill. They did not get into the TMS and I would think the strata above TMS could generally be referred to as Austin Chalk.

It is clear they drilled down to where they wanted to drill. They did not get into the TMS and I would think the strata above TMS could generally be referred to as Austin Chalk. After all is not the Austin Chalk a substrata of the Wilcox which has several substrata including the Austin Chalk? No use arguing over, the well is the well and only the cores they bring up can confirm what strata they are actually in. As regarding use as a SWD, EOG drilled an SWD about four miles away just for that purpose. Only time will tell what will happen. Rumor has that EOG is mulling over what they intend to do with the well. Thus there must be some utility to the well, perhaps if the price per barrel of oil goes up, then they may complete the well. There is certainly no reason to complete the well as a gas well like the Fontaine Farms well.</p> Optimism about the EOG well i…tag:gohaynesvilleshale.com,2019-09-19:2117179:Comment:38557022019-09-19T17:17:54.881ZRock Manhttps://gohaynesvilleshale.com/profile/MarkP
<p>Optimism about the EOG well is great to have - but remember that they did not get this well to the AC for testing / all that work was done in the Lower Wilcox Sands. So even with success, the impact will be local and not trend wide.</p>
<p>Personally, I would be my money on EOG looking to convert this to SWD in Wilcox / Frio sands down the road IF they need it. Or sell it to someone to do similar procedure.</p>
<p>Sorry to be a pessimist</p>

<p>Yes, but Petroquest did not even do a perforation while EOG did four perforations on the Brunswick well. Petroquest pulled back, set a plug at 4,000 feet or so and moved off. And there was frack equipment in place on the Brunswick pad and a completion rig was used. I do not think Petroquest got that far with the LaCour well. No matter we will wait and see what happens. If they were truly abandoning the well, they would have pulled the casing and would have said they did that. So, yes,…</p>

<p>Not necessarily bad news. Status Code 31 does not always appear to mean what it says. In fact, it rarely does. With the advent of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracture stimulation, the industry started using 31 as a code of convenience, reporting wise, for after a well that is drilled and cased but not reported complete. The main reason for this change is that it can we weeks or even months from the day the drilling rig leaves until the day the frac crew shows up. Then there is a…</p>
<p>Not necessarily bad news. Status Code 31 does not always appear to mean what it says. In fact, it rarely does. With the advent of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracture stimulation, the industry started using 31 as a code of convenience, reporting wise, for after a well that is drilled and cased but not reported complete. The main reason for this change is that it can we weeks or even months from the day the drilling rig leaves until the day the frac crew shows up. Then there is a flow back period. This well has been fracked and the next report in the Well File should be the completion data and a change to Code 10, Producing Well. I suggest patience and crossed fingers in the meantime.</p>

<p>The way this well has been drilled so far (e.g. 5.5" casing set to TD) will prevent any deepening to the Tuscaloosa Sand deep gas section. Too small a diameter wellbore to re-enter and drill deeper.</p>
<p>Odds are that the "future" of this well will be as an SWD if that is needed for the area. Lots of good injection zones in the Wilcox and shallower sections here.</p>

<p>Bad news. EOG has filed a report on the Brunswick well. It is coding the well as code 31, "Shut in Dry Hole - Future Utility." I guess some where in the future they can punch on down to the Tuscaloosa Trend for deep dry gas. Gas is over abundant and cheap at the moment. Or I guess it can be used of salt water disposal. This update was filed on SONRIS yesterday (9/17/2019).</p>
