<p>A good read and a good trip down memory lane! Thanks Skip, 2008 seems like a lifetime ago</p>

<p>Gary, I would refer you, and any interested members, to one of my blogs covering a chronology of the early Haynesville Shale play. And I agree that RBN does an especially good job with pipeline related articles.</p>

<p>Interesting reply Skip, I never knew that part of it. And yes I really like the way RBN addresses oil and gas issues but I have done a lot of right of way pipeline work in addition to Landman work so I am kind of prejudiced. </p>

<p>Thanks for posting, Gary. RBN publishes some really good, in-depth analysis. I get their daily emails. </p>
<p>I would take slight exception to the inclusion of 2007 Haynesville data as there is basically none. A few vertical exploratory wells and then a couple of horizontal completions entering 2008. Even 2008 drilling and production data is sparse. The announcement of the play was in late March 2008 and the land rush commenced but few wells were drilled as companies prioritized…</p>
<p>Thanks for posting, Gary. RBN publishes some really good, in-depth analysis. I get their daily emails. </p>
<p>I would take slight exception to the inclusion of 2007 Haynesville data as there is basically none. A few vertical exploratory wells and then a couple of horizontal completions entering 2008. Even 2008 drilling and production data is sparse. The announcement of the play was in late March 2008 and the land rush commenced but few wells were drilled as companies prioritized leasing, forming drilling and production units through state hearings. getting a number of well permits and bringing in the rigs to drill them. 2009 is the first year when there was significant drilling January through December. </p>
<p>5. The Recovery Phase is missing a key element. One that I don't think I've ever seen highlighted in an industry article. Strange. Although the state approved Cross Unit Laterals (CUL) a few years prior, few were drilled in the Zombie Phase, Mid-2015 - late 2016. When drilling increased all Haynesville operators were in CUL drilling mode or in the process of transitioning to it. The increasing length of laterals got the most attention and coverage but it was the least important for increased production per 1000' of lateral. The advent of drilling through unit boundaries did away with the 330' set back requirement of previous "unit" wells. That was another ~80 acres per unit (~160 acres across two) that had not been previously produced because the gas can not be extracted without a frack. Then came the intensive frack designs. Chesapeake was the leader with their Propageddeon well (S/N 249722). Chesapeake pumped 5000# of sand per linear foot of perforated lateral in that well. The combination of vastly increased proppant loading and that extra 160 acres of stimulated rock made the wells in The Recovery Phase a vast improvement in production volume. The long laterals don't necessarily benefit the majority of royalty interests. Along with pad drilling and multi-well completion operations, they did lower the operator's cost to produce an mcf. </p>
<p>That development pattern is now fading and a new phase designed to hold leases and meet take away commitments with a reduced number of new wells is beginning.</p>
