Fayette County, TX - Oil & Gas Discussion

Comment

A neighbor reports flaring at the pad for Ring A Unit Wells #1 & 2.  A very good sign.  Will be anxious to hear oil flow rates.  These wells were drilled just off of I-10 (north side) and drilled directionally (north), somewhat parallel to each other and to Burke Rd.  Anyone else hear more?

Carolyn:

Haven't seen your comments before.  Maybe I've just missed them.  Your answer to Rig #491.  With the exception of the few hard facts we can dig up off the W1 reports, all information seems to be word of mouth.  The "word" is that #491 will complete drilling the Ring well, then either drill another well there on the Ring location (already permited 12/12/2011) or well #3 on the Arnim place on (FM 609) permited (12/23/2011).  I don't believe it makes sense for them to move the rig back to the Arnim place until they have completed at the Ring location on FM 2762; but, again, who knows!

We have been hearing for a couple of months that Southern Bay was waiting to Frack the Peebles well on Bitner Road so they could move the Frack equipment from Bitner road once it was completed over to the Arnim Wells site and then Frack them.  With the third well Permited there now, who knows what their plans are.

Last information on the Bitner Road (Peebles) well is that Fracking will take place around the 16th of this month.  Of course, in November, the word was that they would start Fracking this well the second week of December; but, that never happened.

Southern Bay has permitted at least two wells on the Cal-Maine property South of the Crabb well on Cal-Maine Road.  By now drilling on the first Cal-Maine well should be complete.  This is about 5 miles West of Flatonia and South of Hwy 90 about 1 1/2 miles.

Hopefully some of these guys start moving to the North; but, there is a lot of  undeveloped land between the present drills and Cistern.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Boy, that Nabors Rig #491 drills one well after another, FM 609 twice, then Bitner Road, now just at I-10.  Whats the news on these wells, anyone?

Hello Group, I have leased out minerals North of Flatonia, anxiously watching/awaiting the drilling of the Southern Bay  Ring Unit "A" well.  Nabors Rig # 491, can't miss it from I-10

If you haven't already leased, it will give you a little motivation to spend a little more time and even Attorney dollars on the lease before signing. Washington Irving's note about well lease ownership should also make all of us think about this lease clause.  Beef it up to where you always know who owns the lease and who to contact.  A severe penalty clause should the Lessee not follow the lease provisions.

Now, this is nothing but chatter; but, if you get time, it will be worth an afternoon drive to drive over and through the Cheapside area South of Gonzales.

Here's a quote from the article:  "This time, months passed and no bonus check arrived."

This implies that the lessors signed something without getting the bonus check at the time of signing.  I wonder if those same people ever sold a used car, signed the title over, let them take the car, and then said 'Oh, just send me the payment at some future date.'

Even though there were certainly some shenanigans that I disapprove of, I can't help but wonder if there aren't any attorneys in Michigan?

Oh, brother.
