Permalink Reply by obed w odom on October 15, 2014 at 10:26 Looks like the Benson was completed 8/29/2014, as reported by SONRIS Lite 10/13/14. The results look comparable or better than the Sharp well just to the north, so SWN had much better results going south from the Sharp than what they got in the Milstead going north from the Sharp:
COMP 08/29/14: GAS, L SMK RA SUC, 706.41 BOPD, 2132 MCFD, GOR 3.01/1 GOR, CK 12, GVTY 54.2, BS&W 0.3%, FP 4721, CP 2927, PERFS: 9497'-9505', 9620'-9628', 9700'-9708', 9790'-9798'

Here are completion results reported by SONRIS Lite for the Sharp:
COMP 03/21/14: OIL, LSMK RA SUA, 564 BOPD, 1089 MCFD, GOR 1.93/1, CK 14, GVTY 49.8, BWD 30, BS&W .025%, FP 2158, CP 1752, PERFS: 9174'-9668'.
Another plus for the Benson is that it produced no water vs. 30 BWD for the Sharp:

Permalink Reply by obed w odom on October 20, 2014 at 6:28 It certainly seems that you are right about there being no fracking in the Benson. At least, only perforating (by Baker Wireline) is mentioned in the work resume for the Benson:

For the Sharp, the work resume shows both perforating and 3-stage fracking (by Halliburton):

So the 30 bbl of water produced in the Sharp could be frac water, but even with fracking the Sharp is not as good as the Benson without fracking.

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near…

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. Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
