Les, I actually got an email from Petrohawk some time ago verifying that on their "cartoon" the green oblong shape running generally West SW to East NE was, in fact, their interpretation of the mid-Bossier trend. Just verifying what you already figured out. In Petrohawk's presentation at the "BMO North American Unconventional Gas Conference" they have the green blob on their blob map listed as "Bossier Shale Trend".

SB, thanks for confirming the Bossier Shale Trend blob. I just overlooked that label in the BMO presentation. I am really surprised how much gas EnCana is getting out of that formation with only three frac stages. Plus the map confirms the 8 MMcfd from the vertical Messenger well in Natchitoches Parish.

I like the reference to gas factory. I think we should start a saying something like "Haynesville Shale - The Gas Factory".

Has a certain ring to it, doesn't it??? "Haynesville Shale-The Gas Factory". I bet @ the depth of the Messenger well and a little south of there, the temperature would play havoc with the tools while trying to drill a horizontal well. It'll be interesting watching the technology evolve which enables them to drill laterals at that depth with the 300 plus degree temperatures that I'm sure they'll be dealing with. However, if you can make 8 million with a vertical, you may not have to fool with a horizontal well.

Thanks Les, once again. Does it appear Encana has no 2009 plans for Martin Field? My monitor (and eyes) seem to be saying so...any insight?

RB, I don't have any real insight but would expect EnCana to drill in the Martin Field during 2009. Not sure the map really tells you much about 2009 plans.

Actually slide 17 shows what they plan to drill in 2009. The question is, is this a complete representation of their plans for 2009, or is this just part of what they plan to drill in 2009? My land in in 11N 12W and it is not on the slide 17 map.
As this is Encana's presentation, could it mean the Encana is heading up drilling these, and Shell is heading others, since they are in a joint venture agreement?
I wonder if 11N 12W is not considered to be in the desireable category, "Focused drilling in
shallower, higher NGIP areas", Trenton Field.
So many questions. I see these little nuggets and it just leads to more questions.
Interesting.

I am interested in the 15N12W areas and i don't see a lot of activity in that area at all.

B, which specific sections as both the Caspiana & Elm Grove Fields are located in T15N-R12W.
