The earliest record of a permit for an oil well in Avoyelles Parish is June 19, 1920 for the Bordelon well near Goudeau. Only four wells were permitted in Avoyelles in the 1920s, with two near Cocoville and one near Fifth Ward, In 1933 the Haas oil field was discovered south of Bunkie which set off an oil boom in this part of the parish. The Haas field still produces oil today. In the 1960s, there were several wells permitted during a second oil boom for the parish. In the 1970s, much of the parish was leased for the Tuscaloosa Trend which did not fan out. In 2009, drilling began in the deeper Austin Chalk formations, with exploration of the Tuscaloosa Shale coming soon. GEOLOGICAL LAYORS BENEATH AVOYELLES: Frio ~3,000 feet; Sparta at about 6.500 ft.; Wilcox ~12,000 feet; Austin Chalk ~15,300 feet; Eagle Ford ~15,800 feet; TMS below Eagle Ford.

Looks like new White River permit is about 7 miles east and along strike with the EOG Eagle well (first hz frac AC well in Louisiana).
This new permit is also a "twin" to a 2011 short horizontal (about 3500') that was drilled by Nelson Energy (now operated by Blackbrush). Not frac'd but acidized with 20,000 gallons of stimulant. Well IP flowing of 1167 BO, 644 MCF & 350 BW per day. Cum production of only 63,300 BO & 38 MMCF / still limping along at a few BO per day with some gas and water.
I saw that there was a well permitted in Avoyelles parish on 01/08/2021 by White River Operating LLC. Number 252623-Township 2S, R 5E, Section 13-AUS RA SUDD; DESHOTELS 24H-Bayou Jack North.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge RM. We appreciate you.
No new drilling (unless they deepen the original well). But they will have to drill out plugs that were set when the original well was P&A'd.
Figure they plan to perforate this old well bore at whatever level (assuming that casing has good cement behind pipe) and test that formation. This may include stimulation efforts.
So, they don't have to do any type of drilling or fracking, but just take over the old well?
Present operator is re-entering the old Moncrief Martin deep well that was plugged in 2010 (SN 154571). Description in SONRIS is exactly what is saying, I.e. they found the plugged well location, dug down to expose the top cap on the casing, cut that off and installed a wellhead.
There is a new entry on serial 251564 dated 08/12/2019-Redrill of SN:154571;locate and dig up well on 7/5/19; cut csg and install wellhead on 7/6/19;finished installing wellhead on7/7/19 well name: AUS RA SUXX;Indigo Minerals
so, what exactly does that mean?

Shale drilling and lithium extraction are seemingly distinct activities, but there is a growing connection between the two as the world moves towards cleaner energy solutions. While shale drilling primarily targets…

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 |
