We live on Rust Lane, just the Williams Road. I have seen a new pad going in on the Keithville-Keatchie Road about a mile or two south of Williams Road. Also quite a bit of traffic on Williams Road of those heavy belly dump style trucks too. I was wandering if this "new" activity might mean the possibility of drilling to begin again on Williams Road? Especially within our section; SECTION 11 - TOWNSHIP 15 NORTH - RANGE 15 WEST CADDO PARISH?? John Carrigan

It is for 4 additional units that will reach into our section. However the request is for INDIGO DRILLING not Chesapeake. It also appears as though Indigo is being more aggressive about their play in our area, true?

Indigo, by way of Chesapeake, holds the development rights from the surface of the earth to the base of the CV in your area (Chesapeake owns the deep rights). The CV is the best development target in that range and Indigo specializes in CV wells.

Indigo used to have large holdings in your area. Back in the boom they sold their deep rights to CHK and retained the CV on up.

AboutAs exciting as this is, we know that we have a responsibility to do this thing correctly. After all, we want the farm to remain a place where the family can gather for another 80 years and beyond. This site was born out of these desires.
