Ryan Howrish replied to Niel Loeb's discussion Estimate royalties based on company investment"Sure - that's a good idea. I'll put something small together and share it in this thread."
Ryan Howrish replied to Niel Loeb's discussion Estimate royalties based on company investment"The short answer is yes companies run full-field development economics, including land acquisition costs, before investing any capital (large or small). Part of the economic evaluation includes an estimate of the royalties to be paid because…"
Ryan Howrish replied to Ryan Howrish's discussion Haynesville Well Cost Dashboard"You are correct that there is a lag in the data. Unfortunately, many operators wait at least a year (or more) before submitting their cost report while applying for Severance Tax Relief. Additionally, there were 99 Haynesville wells with…"

Using data from SONRIS, I have created a Haynesville Well Cost Dashboard. This interactive tool lets you explore well cost data across the play, with filters for operators, fields, counties, and production dates, plus visualizations of cost trends over time. While royalty payments aren’t directly tied to well costs, understanding these costs can offer valuable insights. For instance, lower well costs may signal more development activity in your area. Conversely, high costs could indicate lower…See More
Ryan Howrish posted a discussionSWN Proposed Unit Line Alternate Unit Well
SWN filed an application for an alternate unit well that proposes the well to be drilled on the boundary between 6 units in 13N-09W. This is a common practice in other unconventional basins like the Bakken in North Dakota, but this is the first time I have seen one in the Hayneville. The application states that the production will be split equally between neighboring units to the east and west of the proposed well. I will be interested to see how this application progresses.…See More

Ryan Howrish replied to Ryan Howrish's discussion Pending Public Oil and Gas Hearings"I think this is a great question to ask. Keep pushing it. It can be very meaningful for all of the stakeholders. We should always ask questions about how we can do things differently moving forward.

Ryan Howrish replied to Ryan Howrish's discussion Pending Public Oil and Gas Hearings"I think this is great for everyone (operators, mineral owners, state). If you look at the existing development map, the unit wells in Sec 2&3 are drilled ~1000ft off the section/unit boundary. Generally speaking, HV well spacing is…"

The website was the brainchild of Keith Mauck, a landowner and entrepreneur who recognized a pressing need: landowners in the region had little access to…
