Petrohawk Maps - How Much Area Does the Bossier/Haynesville Shale Cover in Louisiana? (11/24/09)
Based on the recent Petrohawk maps for the Haynesville & Bossier Shale, I attempted to estimate the size of the plays in Louisiana only. My estimates are as follows for Louisiana:
Haynesville Shale - 1,891,584 acres
Bossier Shale - 1,135,872 acres
Also, I estimated an area of of almost 900,000 acres where both the Haynesville and Bossier Shales are present in Louisiana.
Based on the above areas there could be ~ 219 Tcf of recoverable gas combined (Louisiana only) and almost 38,000 well locations.
The following is a listing of Township-Ranges where one or both shales are present based on the Petrohawk map. Of course the productive area could actually be larger based on future drilling results.
T7N-R13W to T7N-R14W
T8N-R11W to T8N-R14W
T9N-R10W to T9N-R14W
T10N-R8W to T10N-R15W

T18N-R8W to T18N-R16W
T19N-R9W to T19N-R16W
T20N-R10W to T20N-R16W

Ronald, you must be referring to the Gulf Crossing and Midcontinent Express Pipelines. These are both new 42" gas pipelines.

Here's a few. I think they were using a log from 237838 to define the formation for a few other wells but I could be wrong. And thanks much Jay.

Hi Les and Jay!
Do ya'll have a link for the map that you are referencing? The only one I can find only includes southern DeSoto and northern Sabine parishes.
Thank you both very very much.

Thank you, I guess that I don't need to look at the map after all. LOL I will remain thankful for what I do have.

Insomniac, one of those maps shows the Bossier going as far north as 15/14 of N. Desoto. We have property in Sec. 21 of that area, so that was of interest to me. I have talked to several gas people & 14/14 Desoto has good Bossier shale. Also in sec. 7&8 16N 14W south Caddo, I believe Chesapeake as filed for Bossier and Haynesville units. Jay can you check on that? It would take the Bossier shale into south Caddo
