No seismic surveys that I am aware of JT, but understand quite a bit of land around Spearsville has been leased.

If I were you, I would NOT lease for that amount. There are several good wells in the Three Creeks (Ark) area, which is just north of Cornie Lake, all along Hwy 9 that runs parallel to the Three Creeks area and Cornie Bayou. These wells are about 9000-9800' and are Cotton Valley, producing both oil and gas.

Three years ago, our oil lease listed all three...oil, gas, and lignite in the same lease to run year to year, with a 3 yr maxinum. We had certain stipulations on our lease, but they haven't drilled any producing wells close by. The only one drilled was over by Lowery's and it was a dry hole.

I know there are several geologists looking 'hard' at Union and Columbia counties in Ark, but I will wait to see what happens.

Around Union Grove Church, offer was not very great I heard.

Heard that some leasing is going on in the area west of Lillie.

To JT Green...
Maybe this will shed a little light...
Plugged and Abandoned wells....if you go to SONRIS for well data, there are codes for 'well status.' A code of "29--dry and plugged" means it was drilled, but never completed and is considered a 'dry hole,' and then plugged.
Code '30---plugged and abandoned' usually refers to a well that was produced, and then for various reasons, the operator decided to P&A.
Usually in both these cases, the tubing and production casing are removed, the hole is cemented to bottom depth, and the drill casing is cut off about 5 feet below the ground level, capped with a welded steel plate, and then abandoned.

The oil company will remove all salvageable equipment, and almost always removes the location rock, remediates the land and return the use of it to the landowner. The lease continues until it expires, and can be released to any other company after the expiration. The water well is usually capped also, unless the landowner requests it be left available for his use.

I hope this may have helped some...

Well in Section 6 still has slush pit and bore hole open, perhaps Jamex is planning on moving larger rig in to drill to the permitted depth. Last week well name changed on Sonris, also the derrick on the rig that did the drilling was only rated at 9800ft and well permit is for 12000ft. Any thoughts?
Comment by John D Cook on April 1, 2009 at 13:37
Well in Sec. 6 appears to be a dry hole. Pumping cement in hole now.

You can go into your profile and change your name but cool sounds cool to me.
Comment by John D Cook on March 19, 2009 at 13:39
Suppose to be Cook, not Cool don't know what happened. Well is currently being drilled in Sec. 6 T21n 3w in union parish. More than likely will be cotton valley resA or hossten sands, not the smackover. Lowrey well appears to be dry hole according to the wireline though it did have some zones of high pressure. But lets hope for the best in 09. Like they T. Boone Pickens always said this one is dry, the next one will be a gusher.
