Proposed alternate wells for Sec. 4, 11, 2 - R 10 W - R 9 W

Natchitoches Parish, LA ---- Proposed alternate wells for Sec. 4, 11, 2 - R 10 W - R 9 W and other sections

Any information regarding these proposed alternate wells ....... possible drilling times ..... will all or just some of the proposed alternate wells be drilled ??   I received from Houston, TX  just this past week a $3K per net mineral acre buyout offer which I think is too low.   Any thoughts on this matter  ???

    When alternate unit wells are approved that constitutes a "spacing order".  Once spacing is approved, a well permit to drill is the next step.  There is no notice required for that step so you'd have to check SONRIS to know if a well permit has been issued. 

    Your list of sections is a little confusing as there are no alternate wells approved for sections 2, 4 or 11 at this time.  Are the sections in 10 North - 9 West?  The R 10 W and R 9 West are what is confusing.  You may have received a notice letter that the application is pending but there is no application in the database at this time.  If you have received a notice letter, it must be in the period when Interested Parties can request a local hearing.  That rarely happens and is a waster of time anyway.
