Leasing in north Bossier Parish on behalf of SM Energy has been ongoing for about two years.  That prior leasing was conducted for SM Energy by JB Land Services.  Hopefully others will share information on current leasing in your specific area.  You can look through past discussions about leasing in N Bossier here in the group discussion archive or search using the key words, JB Land.  SM Energy's original interest was in the Pettit Zone but the wells they drilled did not appear to be sufficiently commercial.  It's good to see that they are now interested in drilling a horizontal well in the Haynesville Sand.

This Arkana field well, the Stovall 17 H #1, was spudded on 6/30/14 and was drilling at 7708 feet as of 7/12/14. It has a projected true vertical depth of 11,100 feet and a proposed 4600' lateral in the Haynesville Stringer sand.

The above Stovall 17 H #1 was reported by Nabors Drilling to be at 10085' as of 7/18/14, so they may be about ready to start their turn unless they drill a pilot hole first.

Nabors reports that the Stovall 17 H #1 is "drilling  ahead" at 9768' as of 8/1/14, which is 1200' less than reported last week. Possibly they drilled a pilot hole and have now moved back uphole to start the lateral; or they could have had mechanical problems and had to sidetrack.

Obed, thanks for the updates.  I was over that way yesterday.  I do hope they make a good well.
