Jay, thanks for your insight.

As you may know, the presently producing super wells (in sec. 2 & 11) were operated by J-W.  So if someone were to speculate on which company had the ability to bring in a better double-section horizontal, I'm guessing it might be APC. 

But I could be wrong.  Let's hope that APC will figure out the learning curve on the first new cross-unit lateral before they drill the next three.

We have no experience with Andarko regarding Haynesville operations.  We can say with absolute authority that they mucked up the Austin Chalk in both Pointe Coupee and Avoyelles Parishes.

So I would watch closely as to what they are doing and the results they get.  I wish you best but do not trust them to do anything new and novel with any degree of success.

Bob:

The hearing is scheduled for July 17.  The law firm Liskow & Lewis sent out the letters.

I can't see anything on the DNR hearing schedule for July 17, only the 16th

does it have a docket number on it? it'll be something like "13-XXX." for instance, there's a hearing on 7/16/2013 with the docket number "13-365." and actually, if this is for 4 new alt wells, it may be 4 different docket numbers that are just sequential.

Bob, this is probably a pre-application notice with local conference date of July 17.  It will not appear in the hearing database or be assigned a docket number until after that date.

Bob:

Skip is correct.  APC ". . . plans to apply to the C of C for the calling of a public hearing . . . "

And the July 17th date at the law firm in Lafayette is "a conference to discuss the proposed application . . . ."
