Cline Shale Description
Started by G T. Last reply by AJ yesterday. 8 Replies 0 Likes
Posted by Ralpr-"Shales have smaller pores which also means it has higher porosity - higher porosity means much more volume to store oil, NGLs, and gas. Limestone and sandstone have much larger pores, but vastly reduced porosity and higher potential for oil and gas to escape due to this, and fractures and so forth."This is a very good description. It also describes my mineral acreage perfectly.I'm by no means an expert on this, but there is no question in my mind that, no matter what shale formation, liquid hydrocarbons are all around the Horseshoe Atoll. The oil is there. It's just a matter of time as to when it will be extracted.Our land has had several "dry holes" drilled on it, along with a couple (vertical) producers drilled back in early 60s. They plugged those wells about 20 years ago. They never produced more than 35 barrels a day. One of the reasons that I think it produced the way it did was, because of this type of formations, so called tight sand, "uneconomical field." I…Continue

Permian basin stratigraphy

It is very intertesting reading the current comments about the "layered cake" plays by Raphr, Jack, Page, and others. I have been on the Dawson Co forum for a year and I own some mineral interest on two farms my Granddad bought in the 1920's and on the farm near the Munger community, three "Triple D (Penn Reef) wells were drilled in the late 1950's and produced until about 10 years ago . Two of these wells were 8500 ft. and one was 12,500. I have a couple of questions which my 50 year old geology degree hasn't answered so I am open for your comments. Is the Penn Reef Pennsylvanian in age? Does the D part of Triple D indicate the "D" shelf of the Wolfcamp? Is the Cline shale the source rock for the Penn Reef? And why are 2 of these wells 8500 ft and one is 12,500 ft and all 3 are in a space of less that 1/2 mile? Our interest has been unleased since 2008 when the last well was plugged and reading all your comments keeps me hopeful so I will appreaciate you responces.Continue

Fred Singer is an interesting essayist and physicist. He tries to explain the fluctuations in the price of oil (and natural gas).

David I would consider all of these wells to be near Barnhart
EOG completed a number of wells in Irion County, Texas. The Munson #1005H, #1006H and #1007H began production at 965, 970 and 1,290 Bopd with 55, 60 and 100 Bpd of NGLs and 400, 430 and 730 Mcfd of natural gas, respectively. EOG has 85 percent working interest in these wells. The Faudree #10H, #11H and #12H were completed at 560, 670 and 810 Bopd with 50, 70 and 60 Bpd of NGLs and 365, 490 and 420 Mcfd of natural gas, respectively. EOG has 75 percent working interest
in these wells. EOG has 80 percent working interest in the University 40D #0702H and #0701H, which began production at 660 and 705 Bopd with 75 and 95 Bpd of NGLs with 550 and 685 Mcfd of natural gas, respectively.

EOG at Barnhart was the two university wells that came in at around 700 BOE. They said they had trouble fracking them because oil was creeping from multiple pay zones. I guess we are getting spoiled when 700 BOE and multiple pay zones is not exciting news. I think they were low key on purpose.

Good article about ethical use and definitions of 'reserve', 'resource play', 'EUR - Estimated Ultimate Recovery', Estimated Recoverable Reserves, 'BOE - Barrels of Oil Equivalent', etc. - great for interpreting company presentations and data. Shall I repeat, "Buyer Beware"?

I think it is a case of what would have been big news at many companies being overshadowed by EOG's even better Eagle Ford, Bakken, and Delaware Basin results. Look on pages 26 and 29 of the slide presentation and the earnings call transcript (on their web site). Several excellent recent wells in Irion (South Midland Basin area, they call it on the earnings call transcript), but EOG is finding the rock and fracking more difficult than in the Delaware Basin and is still evaluating how best to proceed. They say they expect to figure it out, but its going to move gradually because they have even better established areas to develop. It may well turn out to be be a very big boost for the Irion area. And of course there could be more to come that EOG isn't ready to talk about yet.

Craig,
You had said to expect EOG to make an announcement of a major find near Barnhart at the May 7th presentation. I didn't see anything in the transcript. Do you have any more informtaion?

I have seen thumper trucks in the area but they were not Dawson. That makes me think that there are 2 companies doing 3D. Thanks Lonnie that is what I thought. Glasscock County is red hot right now. There was only 6 landmen in the courthouse yesterday looks like they are moving into full exploration mode.

when they run across ours in December, the orange were tied together with blue(fiber optic) that went to the truck. The trucks drove across the orange.
