Super Drilling Pads Planned For Sabine County, Texas

There are plans to build Super Pads for drilling the Haynesville and Bossier shale wells in Sabine County, Texas. These Super Pads are necessary for drilling these wells to save money on location expense and for developing the natural gas reserves in and around the National Forest lands. There could be as many as 10-15 wells from each Super Pad. Chesapeake Energy has entered into the northern Sabine County to drill two wells and will probably lead the way as to Super Pad drilling of multiple wells to fully develope their leaseholds in the county. These Super Pads will also allow the operator to skid a drilling rig with limited expense. Total savings are very significant with the Super Pads.

It is worth a try. While you are there pick up 30 tins of Beluga Caviar and 50 bottles of Cristal champagne. You can chill the Cristal in the back of my pink Ford pickup!

Let's be up-front about super pads--their main benefit is conservation of funds, and to absorb BLM's obstructionist habits. I'll bet that will really "twist their (BLM's) tail". sorry i cannot weep!

I imagine operators, where possible, will choose to use private property for the construction of any pad, no matter the size. That way... they don't have to deal with "BLM's obstructionist habits". Superpads are the way to go... building supporting infrastructure once, to service a large number of wells. Lots less impact, both financially and environmentally.

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

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…
