THE GHS HAYNESVILLE SHALE RIG TRACKER. 2023
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.

Add on two more Comstock rigs drilling in Leon County in the Western Extension of Haynesville / Bossier play.
Attached are their last two completion reports
Skip, I believe your last entry should be 4/22 rather than 4/15. You have 4/15 listed twice.
You are correct Spring Branch.
