I don't mean to be redundant but GM is closing the plant here in Shreveport so I am soon to be out of a job at the ripe age of 56. I try reading all the information here about Claiborne Parish but sometimes it gets overwhelming. I know it will be a few years before we really get things going in Claiborne but does it really look as promising as it seems? My family has land about 5 miles from the town of Haynesville going towards Homer. We've got two wells, one considered dry because it only had gas and they wanted oil (back in the 70's) and the other did produce oil and gas for over 20 years and now is considered "shut in productive".........I talked to the geologist years back when they started drilling and he told me they could only get about 30% of the oil out of the formation and the rest would be left. The wells are a little over 10,000 feet and I wish they could go back in and do a horizontal. The bottom line is, will Claiborne be a major player in all this oil and gas productivity? I know I have asked this before but now things are a little more critical for me as well as a lot of other people around here. I appreciate any information someone can give me.
