THE GHS HAYNESVILLE SHALE RIG TRACKER. 2021
I'll update each week so we can follow the rig count. I am only counting rigs drilling the Haynesville and Bossier formations. Many industry rig numbers are for the "Haynesville Area", however they may defined that, and includes wells drilling other formations.

Looks like Chesapeake added 1 in DeSoto. Wouldn't that be plus 1 in LA?
Thomas, Chesapeake rigs went up one while Aethon rigs went down one. That is why the LA count did not change.
Count for LA shows to be up one (33)
Perhaps difference is Indigo, in DeSoto
where they are shown at "1" & also at "2" - ???
