Anybody have knowledge of the history of the Yates and Getty wells in Sections 21,22,23,24 T20s R29E in the 1980's and 1990's? I'm looking for contacts with other owners of mineral interests or operators of any current wells.

Thanks for your comments. I'm probably on the wrong discussion group with my posts, since I'm mostly interested in how they plan to handle the new fracking technology responsibly in an area with such unique geology, including the caverns and artesian water supplies.However, I don't see much discussion of the new technologies in other groups, either. We're extremely concerned about potential damages to our water supplies here in Arkansas.
When I roughnecked out in West Texas in the 50's, drilling was a much simpler game.
Thanks again for your help,
Jim
Well Scott covered the economics of it, I will get you some production info on the wells in the area.
Comment by Scott Takacs on March 30, 2012 at 5:27pm It's not your traditional shale play here. Although enhanced recovery methods make some previously unfeasible plays now more possible, it's hard to compare it with the Fayetteville or Barnett plays. But the higher cost associated with new methods and historically low gas price are making these projects more difficult to justify economically.

Mr. Bemis, I looked at the maps a little bit, I need to research further before I can get you much information. It appears there is a well on at least some of the Acreage. Are you located in Carlsbad ?
Thank you, Jake
Have recently uncovered family interests in in Eddy county T 20S R 29E . Am interested in information about Avalon shale play in that area. Unclear about current activity in that area. Thanks for any additional info.
