i was doing some research and looking over some completion papers for this well as well as a couple others. what is intresting is the naming of "the geological markers" i am not sure, does the field refer to an area as in physical location are does it refer to a formation? note the same formation being called by different names.

KJ, Texas uses a different approach than Louisiana. In Texas, the "Field" is a combination of area and formation. An example would be North Carthage (Bossier Shale) or Centerville (Haynesville). In Louisiana the "Field" is just the area (Caspiana, Sligo, Trenton, etc).

As a follow-up the well had a flowing tubing pressure of 2475 psia and shut-in wellhead pressure of 5807 psia. Also the gas composition was primarily methane w/ 2.3% CO2. The gross heating value was 992 Btu/Scf.

Les, is that good? i am questioning the use of the term cotten valley lime at 12134 vs haynesville lime at 12750. the RR877 also lists the bossier shale at 11097 as a geological marker. what is the purpose of these markers and why was the bossier shale omitted from the list on the hughes#4 ? these wells are about 5-6 miles apart north and south.

KJ, several operators have acknowledged that the Cotton Valley Lime is the same formation as the Haynesville Lime.

I believe the geologic markers are just general reference points for information. The operators do not necessarily list every formation penetrated by a well.

thank you very much, is that bossier shale the upper bossier shale?
