Just general information about the type of well. I read on this site that it was a test well and they were checking for gas at Cotton Valley and Haynesville and oil at lower Cotton Valley. I know very little about the oil and gas industry and had never heard of this type of well, if in fact this is what they are doing. Also if they are drilling at the Haynesville depth, will this be a horizontal well? How long does it take to complete this type of well?

Yes, Coach, this is a HORIZONTAL. I think that's what the H stands for in the well name. It will be the first (known)horizontal in Bienville parish. Total depth just under 17,000 feet with about 14,000 vertical feet
