By "how many units" do you mean wells applied for that if permitted will be drilled eventually?

Drilling & Production Units, MGB. For the Haynesville Shale the most common unit is a standard section (1 mile square) +/- 640 acres and the LA. Office of Conservation mandates 80 acre spacing so each section could have up to 8 wells drilled over time. A unit order by the state designates an operator and allows for pooling all mineral interests within the unit boundaries to share in production.
