I'd hate to be in real estate development in NW La right now. In a lot of cases, reality just took a bus out of town.

Well, the good news is all the production companies have leased more land than they can possibly drill in the next few years. With luck, your lease will run out before they drill on you and you'll...

Down there, I would expect sooner or later you'll hear from someone on the Haynesville Shale.

Good Luck!

The Haynesville runs below the Cotton Valley, but there are various strains of the Cotton Valley at various depths. There hasn't been much if any horizontal CV work because sand formations are a lot...

As memory serves, it was the Gray Sand. They found it in Jackson Parish and spent tons on it but couldn't get it to come on line. Two or three years ago, Anadarko went back to the area and used new...

That's what I call "Stupid Money" And I'd take it all day long if they're offering! Hope he got a good % on his royalties and they find a "Hell-of-a-Well"!

Actually there are two plays getting a lot of interest in this part of the world. The Haynesville Shale and the Gray Sand. The Gray Sand is the formation down in Jackson Parish that had wells coming...
