Well Pressure and Initial Production

If the well pressure measured at say 10,000 pounds after fracing, can any conclusion be drawn just from that data about the possible production before the flow tests are run? I got this pressure information from one of the field personnel doing the fracing for a well in the Greenwood area.

Bud, not really since that is the formation pressure for the Haynesville Shale and is similar throughout the play. The pressure gradient for the Haynesville Shale is ~ 0.90 to 0.92 psi per foot of depth. You can use that value to estimate the formation pressure based on the Haynesville Shale depth in an area. Generally the Haynesville Shale is deeper as you go south so the pressure is higher in Sabine Parish than Caddo Parish.

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. The website was the brainchild of Keith Mauck, a landowner and entrepreneur who recognized a pressing need: landowners in the region had little access to…
