You are calling this well a vertical Haynesville and you may be right, but it looks like a horizontal Haynesville with a short lateral to me. I've asked my friend, Jay, to clarify the matter . I agree with you, though, the DST looks good at this point.

My friend, Jay, says you are right and I am wrong. It is a vertical Haynesville and a good one at that.

Would love for someone to obtain the shale thickness info from Jay or someone else and post it on this thread.

I think Jay posted this info some time back. I can't remember the details, but he said it looked favorable.

FOTY, Jay had previously stated the net thickness was similar to the Red River Parish wells. That should be ~ 150 ft.

While I was trying to learn "Well Log Reading 101" from Jay, I am not confident enough to give a definite interpretation. However, for those who are more familiar with well logs, maybe they can give more detail.

Here is a image file of deeper depth of the Paul E Messenger well.
