EnCana Spuds First Extended Reach Haynesville Shale Well (Revised - 8/25/11)

On August 20th EnCana began drilling the first of four wells with extended laterals that will produce from two separate Haynesville Units.  The well has a permitted measured depth of 22,000 ft (including a 10,000 ft horizontal lateral) so it will be interesting to see how many drilling days are required.  The well permit is attached for information.

EnCana had previously obtained Commission approval to drill alternate wells in this manner for three Haynesville Units in the Woodwardville Field.  Production from these wells will need to be allocated between the two units involved.

Hi Les-

Sorry if this has been explained in another forum and I missed it, but how are royalties divided in these multiple section laterals?

 

thanks,

RB, EnCana proposed to allocate the well's production between units (sections) based on the length of perforated lateral in each section.

 

So if the OB Madden well has 2500 ft of perforated lateral in Section 7 and 5000 ft in Section 18, 67% the well's production would be allocated to Section 18.
