The XTO Cougar unit A726 is on 1090 by the Cemetery at Neuville. It is a Vertical that has been drilled and not fracted but has a pipe line to it and a meter set-up. The Roadrunner is about a mile north and is producing.
Just remembered......the Lout well which is also Hunt (XTO) .... was capped off a while ago. Was by there last week and found "trucks, cranes, workers, etc." I am guessing that they are either opening the same well up or drilling deeper into the Haynesville Shale.
I forgot to ask you.... Do you live in that area? Or do you live in another city and just happen to own land in the area?

amigo 1,
I am also with Hunt(XTO) and I am in a unit that is East of Neuville. It is the Buckner/Smith Well .... if you go East on the dirt road out of Neuville across the railroad track. Once you go as far East as you can on the dirt road (it comes to a "T"--old chicken house will sit in front of you at this "T" -- I think) ) turn to the Left. The well will be on your right as you go down this dirt road (maybe a mile or less). Immediately after you see a (trailer?) house to the left, you will see the well to your right. It was drilled last June and supposedly produced until they capped it off in December....have yet to see any money .... haven't even gotten the paper work for the Division Orders....have been promised several times that the papers were going to be sent (last time promised was for us to have them by sometimes in August -- hope they come before the month is over) but have yet to see them.
Seismic crew has been out at least 2 times....don't know what they found.....Hopefully, something worthwhile.

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of) nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.
This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…

Is there any activity in the Neuville/Shelbyville/Center area at this time? If so, where is the activity?
