T those permits in Z. Redmond Survey all expired but they have a nice big pad on the south side of 103 just west of the 147 intersection. Hopefully someone will drill when the gas price improves.

XTO filed a new permit in Z. Redmon: BSI Hawks DU #H 1 with 8799' lateral drilling north from the pad where the EnCana permits expired.

Updated 1-02-14 to add the cumulative production totals to all wells. It appears to me that the BSI A43 Unit wells were choked back after about four or five months but you can see that they have far and away beat the production from the earlier wells with much shorter laterals.

These two wells were the top producers in the East Texas "Shelby Extension" of the Haynesville Shale... until... EOG brought on the Sarge Unit #1H in north Angelina County (first production in March 2012 just a couple of miles due west of the A43 Unit) which has grossed 6,801,964,mcf in 21 months making the EOG-Sarge Unit #1H the top producing well in the East Texas Haynesville Shale... ever... and from a 5,100' lateral. The Sarge is also the deepest Haynesville horizontal completed in Texas to date with a TVD of 15,828'. On the IP test it flowed 16.190 MMcfd, had a 9,915# flowing pressure on a 19/64 choke and a 12,015# shut in pressure, which makes it the highest pressure recorded to date, and a bottom hole temp. of 416 deg. F (yes, another record).

jffree1 , it appears to me that the EOG Sarge  #1H is as much as 20 miles or more west of the EnCana A-43 Unit, which would place it more than a "couple miles" due west of the A 43 Unit.  Am I missing something?

SB,

You are closer to correct than I am. Google Earth puts it at 18.3 miles as the crow flies (and I should have looked). I was thinking "just across the river" which it is... but I was thinking of the wrong river (Attoyac instead of Anglina). Sorry about that. Post in haste, repent at leisure, etc...

I would just add that all of that territory in between is probably good rock, don't you think? And probably getting a bit better as you go west. The unknown now is how far south and west, I think. Time will tell.

With the exception of a couple Goodrich wells, which I think may have had some mechanical issues, and several Exco wells in the J. Walker, A-57 survey,there is a lot of undeveloped acreage between the EnCana A-43 and the EOG Sarge 1H Unit.   I cant think of any reason why the acreage wouldn't be developed by someone eventually.  As you say, it should be good rock.  I'd love to have an interest in a few wells like the Sarge 1H.

As you may remember, we are less than 2 miles due west of A-43. I actually had an Independent Landman email me late December wanting to shop our land around if we weren't leased. I updated our non-leased status & told them to get to work.

FB,

Look for activity by XTO. They permitted the BSI/USFS Unit F6 #1H in late January. It is a location on which EnCana allowed their permits to expire.

Speaking of XTO... Banana Slugs DU #1H, Lease ID #269459, has produced 3,353,611 mcf in 8 months from a ~6900' lateral. That unit is just north of you.

Thanks for the info! I haven't checked GHS in a while. We're still leasing dormant but time is our friend. NG in the $4.80 range & holding. The huge Freeport LNG export facility has been permitted & construction will start next year! Another Freeport plant going in to convert dry gas to exportable LNG slated to start soon. Life is GOOD....

Farmbrad,

I recently leased a small amount of minerals in the Morgan Berry, A-59, just east of A. Spear, A-43 to XTO.  Their intention is to drill a well in the not too distant future.  Jffree1 mentioned the Banana Slugs #1H well, in which I also have a small interest.  Thru 11 months the Banana Slugs  has now produced 4,471,327 mcf, which may very well be the 2nd best Haynesville well in the play including the Louisiana Haynesville, I acknowlege that it does have a 6,900' lateral, which is longer that virtually all the Louisiana wells.  In March, 2014, after 11 months, it was still producing 12 million cu ft  a day.  It is a big well and is second only to the Sarge 1 H .

I scaled the distance on GIS Map Viewer from bottom of Banana Slugs #1H lateral to our northern most boundary. (1-3/4 miles)

Walkers in Nac Co to the west (2-3 miles), BS-A43 /F16's to the east (1-3/4 miles), & now Banana Slugs just north. Surely we'll see some action as NG demand increases.

The anticipation is starting to build again. Thanks for the info...

farmbrad,

XTO is operator now on the EnCana wells in San Augustine. Just an FYI.
