Choudawg86,

What do you know about the sand formations activity in the Ark/La border area? I understand there is quite a bit of activity going on, but most of it is not receiving the press...

So, what's going on these days? There hasn't been a lot of commentary on this site lately, and according to gohaynesvilleshale.com, the main players are having problems generating capital right now...

Well, I hold the distinction of making the last post, and my last comment was somewhat too introspective, so I will try to make amends with this one.

Where are we in terms of "the map" of the...

In this morning's paper (Baton Rouge) www.2theadvocate.com, there is an artilce about a speech given by Dan Briggs, president of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association. He said that the present area...

Okay, I guess I'll be the one to ask the obvious. Suppose you are contacted by one of the companies presently searching the area for oil and gas. What's the next step? Who do you contact for...

These news items may have been reported elsewhere, but the Times-Picayune (www.nola.com) is reporting under its Metro section that the State of Louisiana has signed a lease deal around DeSoto Parish...

I have read that one of the problems they are encountering is that the lithology (rock formations) changes the closer you get to the La/Arkansas state line. Does this mean that there are no other...

Is it possible that the exploration/drilling activity could spread to Union, Ouachita, and Richland parishes? What's the possibility that it could extend into southern Arkansas?

Okay, folks, I suppose it's time for a State of the State (if you'll pardon the pun) so to speak, but exactly where are we with regard to the Haynesville Shale (and surrounding formations)? The...

According to people who are a lot wiser than me, oil and gas are fugacious minerals, meaning they are migratory. If that is the case, then I see new fields of exploration opening up in and around...

So, are there any parking spaces available around the Claiborne Parish courthouse in Homer? How many landmen do you suppose there are in and around the Homer/Haynesville area these days? :icon_wink:

This is the analysis that dovetails with the local folklore of those who reside in the more sparsely-populated parishes of north Louisiana, and oddly enough, is being picked up in the national media,...

In today's edition (08/01/08) edition of the LA Times (www.latimes.com), there is an article on the Haynesville Shale by a reporter who has been reviewing the blogging activity on...

In the July 29th edition of the New York Times (www.nytimes.com), they have an article entitled "Gas Rush Is On, and Louisianians Cash In." In the second paragraph, they say the formation extends up...

This morning, I had an interesting conversation with a fellow CPA from Shreveport about the frenzied activity surrounding the Haynesville Shale activity. He told me his business has certainly picked...

Tenacious Dog,

Thanks for the expansive explanation. My family's farm/homestead is just outside Junction City, in Claiborne Parish, and I've heard that there are 4 active NG wells in this area,...

Tenacious Dog,

I assume this "gray sand" you speak of is part of the Haynesville Sand formation? If not, then dd you know the geographic dimensions of this "gray sand"? The Haynesville Sand...

I realize this question is asking a bit much, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is going to be any drilling/exploration activity outside of the Haynesville Shale formation. Does anyone know...

Sorry folks, but I'm out of my element when it comes to discussing geologic formations and such. Can anyone give me the geographic dimensions of the Haynesville Sand, Smackover, and Cotton Valley...

I would welcome any information about any activity going on in the easternmost parts of Claiborne parish, particularly around Junction City and/or Lillie.

There is a gentleman in Homer who works with the State Office of Conservation that may be able to give you a heads up (www.dnr.state.la.us). He works the tri-parish area of Union, Lincoln, and...

As a point of interest to those of you who may have property, et cetera, in Claiborne Parish, I spoke with a gentleman from Homer who is employed by the state Office of Conservation, and he had some...

What year did this guy play baseball for Tech? Was it during the 1980's?

For purposes of discussion, I want to preface my remarks by saying I'm not familiar with the process of leasing at all, so I'm trying to get some background on the process itself. The figures of...

Tech88,

Thanks for the heads up!
