Heard that LaCour #43 was waiting on a special down hole lift system.   Anybody hear anything?  Also heard the rig has moved back to Texas after the Edinburg well was completed.  Any comments?

Patience my friend.  We have been waiting since 1983 when the plantation had six or so acres in production.  That well sanded over and was not reworked which leads me to believe that it was poorly drilled.  It was a Tuscaloosa Trend well.  Since then, our land holdings has been leased three times.  Then the price of oil crashed and the dreams of oil went away.  Well the price of oil is back up and the dreams are renewed.  So count your lease money and wait.  Might have to go through this for the next 10 years.

That is why my grand father used to say getting lease money is like finding money in the road.  It is free.  But you never know what will come a long take it back.  Or worse just raise your hopes.  Been there and done that.

Is it my imagination or does movement in the Chalk seem slow compared to the TMS?

Tue 10Jan for the Atinum York well (alternate for the old Clark well) Craig. Rumor has it Anadarko is looking at nine new wells but I haven't seen those apps. Haven't heard of any new unit apps though. Everything I've seen has been in existing units.

Does anybody know of Chalk unit hearings set for the new year?

Is anyone aware of drilling in the AC in Karnes County.  I understand that Hilcorp soon to be Marathon may have started, but not sure.

We already have our leases done in St. Landry and Avoyelles Abington. I think Indigo worked theirs as well but I'm not privvy to their negotiations. Really interested to watch Atinum and their Indigo 16. The only well I can remember that was attempted in that SUD was an old Moncrief well that blew out at around 14,000' if memory serves. It might have been a section north now that I think about it. Those old verticals couldn't stand up to that much pressure. Our interests lie in the S Avoyelles/N St. Landry area so I really couldn't hazard a guess as to SE St. Landry. It would stand to reason though.

Thanks for the info on the pre-app hearing Watt.  A little tug of war is a good sign. Better to have two companies wanting the area than none at all. Someone told me the courthouse in Avoyelles was still full of landmen as of yesterday, most concentrating on the southeastern area of the parish. Have you heard anything about leasing in St. Landry?

Craig, the map at  link indicates the atchafalaya river ar the right side. One of the units overlaps a little into the river basin. That perhaps is why the application states Avoyelles, St. Landry and Pt. Coupee.

The article states some of the units are in Pointe Coupee. Does anyone know where?
