In the Haynesville, EOG drilled two wells that may be among the industry's most prolific to date in the entire play. Due to pipeline constraints, the 30-day average restricted flow rates from the Crane #26-1H and Murray #1H were 27 and 25 MMcfd of natural gas at 7,800 and 8,100 psi flowing pressure, respectively. The wells had initial production rates of 32 and 30 MMcfd at 9,700 and 9,200 psi flowing pressure, respectively. EOG has 96 percent working interest in these Texas core area wells. Extending the boundary of the sweet spot further east into San Augustine County, Texas, the Walters #1H was completed with a restricted initial production rate of 21 MMcfd of natural gas. EOG has 49 percent working interest in this well. EOG confirmed success from the Bossier Formation in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana with the Red River 5#3H. EOG has a 100 percent working interest in the well, which began production at over 15 MMcfd of natural gas.

ROG, thanks for the post.
Les B: I really dont understand much about flow rates. However, from what Im understanding, in this report, the initial flow rates were higher than these wells first reported. What are they talking about when they are talking about pipeline restraints? Please excuse my ignorance in this area. Im just beginning to research and learn this process...THanks for any reply...
ROG, because TRRC report is a snapshot in time, the well could actually have a higher flow rate and pressure before or after the official report. Also, the official report is a 72-hr average while companies will often report a 24-hr average in their press release. Sometimes higher rates occur after a well has produced a few days due to well still "cleaning up" (ie flowing back frac water and trash).

Downstream gas pipelines and/or treating facilities can have capacity limitations due to sizing or existng gas production. The operator may have to further restrict the well rate due to these capacity limitations.

I do believe these are two of the very best wells to date in the entire Haynesville/Bossier Shale play based on their average 30-day rates.
