    Hi Les B,
    Thanks for sending me the information on the Wood well of Samson's in my section. Keep me posted on anything else you may find out about.
    Thanks!
    Trisha ( I got some real good pictures of the fire last night.)
  • Trisha Giddens

    Hi Les B,
    Sorry to keep bothering you, but I want to use your BRAIN, as you are well aware I don't have one!! Seriously, you are so knowledgeable on this stuff and have been so helpful to me, I really do appreciate it.
    Now, I have one more question ( math problem ) for you. I don't have a clue how to figure it, so will you help me?
    If a well is doing 20 mcfd, at the current price of gas, how much would that be per acre?
  • Trisha Giddens

    Thanks for the information. I guess my e-mails have sounded very "gready", and I certainly do not mean it in that context. I am just "excited" as you well know, and believe me I know anything we get from this well is a "Gift from God."
    I thank Him everyday, just for the well and ANYTHING that it produces.
  • Anita

    I agree with that!I thank god every day for everything he's blessed us with.

    Les, what do you make of #990464 permitted 7-23-09, S29-13N-11W - Red River - Bull Bayou.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    I was not aware that inactive operators were allowed to file any type of well permit. LOL!
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    20N-15W - you are correct. 3
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    20N - 16W - You are correct. 4
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Keep 'em coming. I'll get to 'em all eventually. Probably tomorrow. I can't get Electrodynamics off the phone. LOL!
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Our difference is Section 6. I do not show it and you do. I can't find it in the public hearing dockets. Is it from a field order?
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    18N-11W: I don't have a record of 19/30.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    I have S2/HA RA SUP CHK - Metcalf Field from the July 14, 2009 public hearing schedule.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    17N-16W. Got it. Entered it on the line above. That's one problem with a spreadsheet instead of a list.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Les, I have time to finish reviewing and responding to 16N-11W and then I will be out until this evening. If you have the time and the inclination, keep sending. I'll respond as I get the time.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    16N-11W. I don't have 27 & 35.
  • Rosebud

    Les, are you getting multiple copies of my reply to your message regarding Gregory's movie? Everytime I try to submit, I get an error message - I can't tell if it's being sent or not...and, if it is, how many times? LOL!

  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    14 is the correct number for 12N - 12W. I had a double entry for one section.
  • Rosebud

    I thought you might have received my reply three times but that's all, definitely not five times. My visits to GHS.com this morning have been jumping, jerking, hiccuping, stuttering and sputtering, rather unsettling experiences but it seems O.K. right now.

    Les. Trying to keep up with where we are at is difficult using the site. Please consider doing it by personal email. I think I could keep up better. skippeel@gmail.com I'm responding whenever I need a break from a current project so I apologize for being a little sporadic.

    9N - 13W, I believe you may be missing HK's HA RA SUNN from Docket 09-813, hearing date July 21, 2009.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    11N -10W. In addition to your units, I have Section 4, 5 & 8 from Docket #09-573, May 28, 2009.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    11N-12W. I have Section 7 to CHK/HA RA SUJ/Docket # 09-128 on hearing date Feb. 3, 2009.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    11N-13W. I do not have Sections 12 & 23.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    12N-13W. You have Section 36, I do not.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    12N-14W. I didn't have sections 1 & 3. I found section 3 but not section 1.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    12N-15W. In addition to your units, I have Sections 20 & 21 to J-W on April 28, 2009, Docket #09-471 and Section 3 to DEUSA on July 21, 2009 Docket #09-793. I also had Section 29 to Cypress Operating but upon review,it is a Hosston Unit.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Les. I'm having a hard time keeping up. In 11N-13W, please give me the operator for Sections 12 & 23. This site comment discussion is confusing.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Sorry. I'm still trying to catch up. 15N-10W. I didn't have Section 17. No need to respond with the docket number, I trust your word and don't reference dockets in my spreadsheets.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    16N-9W. I guess I didn't update my township unit total. I have 25, but that's with Section 6 counted twice, once for HK and once for XTO. So 24.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    16N-10W. I have 8 also. How old is my township grid that you are referencing? I'm beginning to wonder if part of the difference is units added since my last post.
  • Bobi Carr ("parker")

    Les,

    Is the new title better?
  • fox

    Hey Les B--How you doing? I wonder if you could look at a well on Sonris and let me know your opinion on? It is the Marr well sn 239043.
    Would appreciate some info from you, if you dont mind. Thanks.
    You take care now.

  • fox

    Les-thank you. I appreciate it.
  • darryl s. jenkins

    thanks man,you will be blessed.your info is appreciated. have a blessed day.
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Les, when you get time take a look at these two CHK verticals and let me know what you think. 239547 & 239423
  • Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant

    Yeah, they caught my attention because I haven't seen CHK permit a vertical in a while. It also passed my mind that the area is possibly a little more challenging. And the data from these wells may help with the design of future horizontal completions in the southern reaches of the Play.
  • Taylor

    Les, Just noticed BP application for 13 more units in Desoto. Is that a record or something? wow!
  • Bobi Carr ("parker")

    Hi Les,

    Just wanted to let you know that PetroHawk just moved the HP 39 onto the Grayson #239822 in 24-17N-13W.
  • ken hatcher

    les the forest well at noble, what do you read on sonnris. i am not sure i understand it. was it sucessful....ken hatcher
  • lanadan Ds3

    Les,
    Concerning well #239478 -- Do you the most accurate, up-to-date place to find out:
    1) the actual date of completion of well,
    2) the IP numbers w/pressure, etc.
    Scout report on SONRIS as of 7/15 simply says "IN TESTING"

    Your reply will be appreciated.

    Les,
    Thanks for your courteous reply. My situation, I suppose, is somewhat unique in that my acreage (75) is the only sizeable piece of dirt in our area that is not leased. It's not that I am "anti" anything (I hope and do believe that the Haynesville will show forth great benefits for years to come) but rather I have decided to embark on a path of insisting, yes, demanding that CHK treat me fairly and with just compensation for what rightly belongs to me. I am an American -- I firmly believe in the free enterprise-capitalist system!

    And, it's really not all about the money ( " . . . life is more than raimant . . . ". I would sign a lease tomorrow if I were presented fair and equitable terms. Until then, I will simply remain UMI. Period.

    Again, thanks for all the contributions you and some others have been so kind as to present on this site.
  • lanadan Ds3

    Les,

    Well #239478 is in S20T11R15. Scout Report (report date of 7/29) shows " PERF 11,461-15,102 (10 STGS) ". Well should be completely tied into pipeline within 30 days.

    Any help and/or comments will be GREATLY appreciated.
  • lanadan Ds3

    Again, many thanks for your concern and knowledgeable input.
  • Henry

    Les, I found a tiny error in your RR Parish rig postings... #239966 is in 13N, 11W, not 11N, 11W. Thanks so much for all you do.
  • jffree1

    Les B, There is a question posted on the comment wall of San Augustine County Group which concerns "Temporary Subsurface Easement". Can you shed some light on what this might be? If not, do you know who could?

  • jffree1

    Thanks for replying. I'll try Caliente next time I see her on. jf
  • Stay Informed

    Les B,
    Any word on Section4 township 14N Range 15W. I think we have someone in our unit that they are going to try to make force pool soon. I also think there might be someone whos lease is almost up. Just wondering if you have heard anything about drilling there soon? I beilive I saw sec4 township19 range 15W sounds like it would be close to us. Do you know of a place close to us and how much they have found? I am sorry sometimes I am a rambler.
    Thanks for your help,
    Christen

    Hello, Les. Are you sure this one is a Haynesville Shale as opposed to a Haynesville Sand well?

    Unit #307 Rig, Diamond Oil, Stewart 31 #1 Well, Serial #240122, S31-T20N-R10W

    With the number of Gray Sand wells drilled and producing from deeper depths in the township by other more capable operators (XTO), I would think this was a sand well?
