How many shales are present in Louisiana

Hi All! First of all let me say that i really enjoy reading about all the great information supplied in the forum & about the Haynesville Shale. I do understand some of what is going on, but then i don't understand some of the terminology in the forum. My first question is: How many Shales are present in Louisiana & what shales are present in other states that extend into Louisiana. I would like to know the areas where they are present if possible---tks--Ginger

Renee, if the well is a vertical then there is a possibility of performing a second fracture stimulation. If a horizontal then it is likely a plug and abandon candidate or the operator could re-enter and drill a new horizontal lateral. The well is not really "super-glued" as the original fractures would simply close due to the proppant now having sufficient strength.
