Shelby County, Texas

There's a rumor that Devon is suspending further activity in NW Shelby County. This includes Samford 1h. Can anyone confirm?

How did you hear about it?

If true, the well would be the May Unit #2 in the J. E. Haley, A-284 survey. I believe it was drilled as a vertical. Well # 419-31592.

That is the right well, no doubt. The vertical was a Wildcat exploratory test but it was permitted horizontal in the HA, also.

If you look at the attached picture you can kinda see why they wanted to try this spot... unless you believe in the state line fault, of course. Comstock is NE of Logansport, CHK is SE and Classic is in SE Panola Co. (NW of Joaquin).

Looks to me like the Forest well MAY BE side-tracked (and POSSIBLY they had to call P&A on the original hole) but more likely they plugged back part of the vertical hole and side-tracked into the lateral run. My rig report (not Baker Hughes) shows Patterson rig 523 drilling ahead @ 10,595' on 8-06-10 (Friday). Top of pay on the May #1 was 10,250' in the Center (Haynesville) field.

The History of GoHaynesvilleShale.com

GoHaynesvilleShale.com (GHS) was launched in 2008 during a pivotal moment in the energy industry, when the Haynesville Shale formation—a massive natural gas reserve lying beneath parts of northwest Louisiana, east Texas, and southwest Arkansas—was beginning to attract national attention.
