Abington is that $125/acre [25] for drilling and testing a well?  And if they successfully test a well, they pay an additional $150/acre in 6 months?
Comment by Abington on July 30, 2011 at 4:20

Yes, Turner Bayou in southeastern corner of Avoyelles. 

Northern areas of Avoyelles are getting 25 for testing with option of 150 in 6 months.

Abington is this in the Turner Bayou project area?  Any idea who is paying this amount?
Comment by Abington on July 30, 2011 at 0:13
Going rate in Avoyelles Parish is now 350 per acre, up from the 125 an acre last year about this time.

Thanks, that's interesting.  Could it be a joint venture- multiple horizons?  Anadarko (AC) and Devon (TMS).

Thanks

Previous posts by knowledgeable members have connected Mr. Salmon with Devon Energy.  Whether that is the case here is unclear.

Thanks Skip

 

That is who we are talking about but does anybody know who they are leasing for?

Has anyone noticed any drilling activity in Pointe Coupee along the east side of the Atchafalaya between Simmesport and McCrea?
