I haven't seen any discussion about this but the reported IP's by Chesapeake in T11N, R15 & 14W don't seem to me to be any better than those wells reported in T18, north of I 20. This confuses me because Chesapeake is drilling like crazy in 11/15. So far CHK has drilled 16 wells in 11/15 and reported IP's on three (3) of them: Section 14...4,251MCFD; Section 15...3,003MCFD and Section 25...6,097MCFD. On the west side of 11/14 CHK has drilled four wells and reported IP's on two (2) of them: Section 19...8,670MCFD and Section 30...5,733MCFD. The reported pressures seem to be much lower than other parts of the play as well. There has to be a good reason for Chesapeak to continue drilling the Lower Haynesville and building infrastructure in this area, I just can't figure out what the reason is. Other than Bethany-Longstreet, this is probably CHK's most heavily drilled area but the IP's are 1/2 of that in Bethany-Longstreet. I don't think CHK is stupid so I repeat....there has to be a reason for their continuing to drill the area. Middle-Bossier prospectivity perhaps? Somebody help me figure this thing out! Comstock has some pretty modest wells in the area also.

Jay, here are five (5) to look at:

11/15 Section 14.....#239259

11/15 Section 25......#239083
11/14 Section 19......#238613

Look at the Lower Haynesville also if you will. Also, I emailed you something of interest a little while ago.
