First Tuscaloosa Well in Avoyelles?

Heard from a landman that the First Tuscaloosa Well in Avoyelles might be drilled in the second quarter of 2012.  Somewhere in the center of Avoyelles, where they have done leasing, perhaps near Hamburg. Not sure how accurate the info is.  No permits yet at Sonris.

So far, only Austin Chalk horizontal wells (four) have been drilled in Avoyelles, so it will be interesting to see how this new search in a different formation will unfold. Has anyone heard anything else in Avoyelles?
