OK, this entry is in SONRIS.

COMPLETED 5-18-10; GAS; HAYNESVILLE RA; 16,656 MCFD; 22/64 CHOKE; 7964# CP; PERFS 11,636-16,125' MD

Does 7964# mean 7964 psi at the wellhead or something else?

what does this mean: flowing over 700 on pressure?
Mac, the well has a flowing casing pressure of 7964 psi at the wellhead upstream of the choke.

Most Haynesville Shale wells are initially tested before production is installed so that is the reason for the flowing casing pressure rather the more typical flowing tubing pressure. Production tubing would be installed 2-3 months later after the water production rate has declined.
OK, the well in question lists 1034, 758, 512 as the casing size. I'm assuming this means that the "hole" size tapers as you go further down the well. If I'm correct and the hole is 10.34 inches at the top, that's 668,000 lbs or 300 tons.

YOW!!! That's the weight of 1 1/2 modern locomotives.

I'd hate to be the guy who has to put the cap back on if it comes unscrewed.
Mac, you are close on casing diameters:

10 & 3/4"
7 & 5/8"
5 & 1/2"
Thanks, Les. I was thinking 10 3/4, but typed 10.34.

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
