THE GHS HAYNESVILLE SHALE RIG TRACKER. 2023
I'll update each week so we can follow the rig count. I am only counting rigs drilling the Haynesville and Bossier formations. Many industry rig numbers are for the "Haynesville Area", however they may defined that, and includes wells drilling other formations.

Permalink Reply by Rock Man on October 7, 2023 at 6:00 Aethon with 9 active rigs is impressive operation - both as to capital expenses and operational logistics
Permalink Reply by Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant on October 7, 2023 at 6:03 It's the first time in a while that Aethon hasn't had a rig on their Louisiana acreage. The six in Angelina are BSM. I'm not sure about the one rig in Nacogdouches.

Permalink Reply by EastTexasFarmer on October 11, 2023 at 4:30 Aethon's current Angelina County focus is drilled but uncompleted wells (my opinion). It's my guess that Aethon is preparing for higher natgas pricing next year when additional LNG capacity comes online.
Permalink Reply by Rock Man on October 11, 2023 at 4:39 In a sim. situation w/ 2 PNG (ROBNSN 10&15-14-16) wells completed 1/18/23 also ready to be fracked & apparently waiting on higher NG pricing.

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near…

AboutAs exciting as this is, we know that we have a responsibility to do this thing correctly. After all, we want the farm to remain a place where the family can gather for another 80 years and beyond. This site was born out of these desires. Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
