Les. I must have an error in my list of HA units for 15N - 11W as I total 36. What section(s) do you show that are not under unit order?

Hi Les,

Just wanted to let you know that I saw the sign for Nabors rig M46 today. It will either drill 240322 or 240579. I assume 240322 first since it was permitted first, then 240579.

As always thanks for all you do.

Thanks.

Les. Do you show an HA unit order for Sect. 1 - 13N - 9W? I am missing one for S1 or I have miscounted my township total. Skip

Les,

I'm so glad you are addicted to the shale too. I sincerely appreciate all of the information that you share with us novices.

Thanks, Les. I was wondering if we might see a spate of mechanical problems with wells drilling in the far south reaches of the Play. The next few months will be interesting as completion results begin to be announced. Happy Holidays.

Les. I am seeing a few wells completed in the southern reaches of the play with low IPs but very small chokes and very high pressures. Not a total surprise. But I have also run across a couple that are being prepped to P&A. I expect that they experienced serious mechanical problems. Here is one, Encana's San Patricio Cattle 7H (239979):

PREP TO P&A
10/23/2009 07 1872 RIG DOWN TRINIDAD 47 DUE TO GAS BETWEEN 16" CONDUCTOR & 10 3/4" CASING
09/25/2009 07 1872 SPUD 9-12-09; SET 10 3/4 TO 1872' W/ 823 SX; WAITING ON ANOTHER RIG
07/10/2009 01 17000 2240' FWL & 500' FNL OF SEC 7. PBHL: 2240' FWL & 330' FSL OF SEC 7.

Les, the well just south of armistead( ralph webb) was it sucessful...thanks, ken

Thank you for the insight, we will keep an eye open next year for the permit. What part of the world are you located, so we can invite you for dinner when the well spuds? Thanks again, RB

Thanks always for your help and information, and for taking the time to write. Our Pride/Encana lease expires February 2011, do you think they will have a well in our section by then? thanks, RB

Oops, Les I meant Petrohawk's November presentation, page 12. Is section 20 in the dark red area? Hard for these old eyes to tell! Thanks again, RB

Thanks for the update Les, glad to know they are still interested in our area. Our family land is just north of 155 in section 20 just below Mr. Adcock's section, T13N-R8W. In the presentation you posted a while back with the detailed maps (Chesapeake, I think), it looked like our section was half in the Haynesville area, am i correct in reading that? Many thanks, RB

Les. At this point I'm not surprised that there are other wells permitted as CV but producing from the HA. A staffer at LOC led me to believe that the instances of such were few. That doesn't seem to be the case as I keep running into additional examples in various fields. Though it's been discussed in brief on the site, I'm wondering what the reaction will be when a CV or LCV well makes your H of F list.

Les. Though I have not been actively searching for CV/LCV wells that appear to be producing from HA depths, I am running across additional wells on a semi-regular basis. While conducting research in the Elm Grove Field, I ran across these two, #238382 and 237344. Certainly these IP's can't be CV.

I'm trying to think if anything has changed as of Saturday...and I can't think of what it might be.

Thanks for the heads up. What kind of connection do you use on your laptop...cable? Does it only stall with GHS? Does it stall on the homepage? Any other pages?

Thanks. I'll check the company press releases.

Les. As the data on the five wells I mention is not on SONRIS, would I be correct to assume that it comes from company press releases?

Les. Thanks for the Well Hall of Fame update. I notice that several wells are not shown as completed and have no well test data on SONRIS. What source or sources are you using for completion data? Particularly for El Paso - AV Young 7 #H1 (239785) and Weathers 14 #H1 (239598). I also notice that some of the wells on the list have completion data different (and higher) than the SONRIS well reports. Particularly HK Griffith 11 #H1 (238281), Comstock Colvin Craner Hz #H2 (239539) andEl Paso Blake 10 #H1 (238976). If have not reviewed the full list but the five wells I mention are in an AOI that I am tracking and I noticed the variances between what I have and your list.
