Just curious, did you hear that from shell? They just might move over a bit and try again. They have one in section 1 that is a really good well. Since nov 2010 it has produced 1.4 Bcf.

Individual wells can be configured to treat H2S by at least two means that I know of. 1) Amine or 2) iron oxide treated wood chips.  Google it.

Shell has approval for another well in section 4, docket 11-366 , ref num 1513-B-7. I haven;t found the well number yet. Looking at the diagram, the new well is in the same direction, don't know if it's above or below or same location. Pretty new at this nat gas well stuff, really fascinating to me. I read about Scavenger this morning, hope they do something to 4h-1. Still driving my '05 chevy truck and thinking I probably will for awhile, good truck.

Well 241012 did not have any production in May. I have contacted Swepi several times to ask about the status of the well. They tell me they are checking with the engineer and still no feedback. If anyone has any information about the current status of this well I sure would appreciate it. Well 241012 is in section 4-8N-12W. I just would like to know if the well is completely shutdown or if they are working to handle the H2S and may start to produce again. Any info would be great.

The well produced 19831 MCF in June and 7366 in July. I did find out that they are still testing the well, but the H2S is still high.
It was on for the days 25 through 29 in july and is back off now.

Bob, the following is the well information.  It is unclear why Shell is drilling the new well so close to the existing well but they may be planning to test the Bossier Shale interval above the Haynesville Shale.

 

Shell, Olympia Minerals 4 #H2A Well, Serial #243536, S4-T8N-R12W

Thanks for the information, I do appreciate it. Sounds like they are still working on the well which is good news I guess. Still hoping they get it resolved somehow. Hope the second one is a gusher but still driving the '05 chevy for now.

I received an update on section 4 - 8n - 12w from a landowner in the area. He says there is a big pad being built with a size of 900 by 900 feet and he says usually the pad is 500 by 500. I know there is an alternate well, number 242529, approved for that section. My question is the size of the pad, does this signify anything by the pad being bigger than normal?

Bob, a pad that large may indicate plans to construct centralized gas treating and/or compression but the pad size seems too large even for that application.

 

By the way, I assume you meant well number 243536.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes the alternate well is 243536. The unit well, 241012, has sour gas and the land owner who told me about the pad also said there are yellow flags and caution signs around the pad construction area. Maybe they are going to treat the gas from unit well 241012 which has no or low monthly production. Maybe they are planning to drill a bunch of wells, anyway thanks again

Hi, if anyone is in the area of section 4 - 8N - 12W could you let me know what is going on. A landowner on a different section told me there was lots of construction of a large pad. I have contacted Shell but no word from them. The unit well is 241012 and a permitted alt well 243536. I keep checking sonris but the reports are several months old.

There is no rig assigned to this well permit currently.  Proprietary weekly rig reports come out late on Fridays.  The reporting lag time on SONRIS is far too long for it to be of much use for tracking drilling.   Rigs often reach Total Depth and are gone before they are shown as spudded on the state database.  Just ask each Saturday and someone with a rig report will let you know when drilling begins.
