It appears that in 22-14n-9w Marathon got a permit to drill on 5.3.2012. I don’t see any increased density or anything about 8 wells at this time.

Renbarger 1-22H.

Thanks Tim! He was happy to hear the news! It seems Marathon has been staking 8 wells in a section and drilling one, I’m sure it’s because with this wind farm coming in that they want to be able to say that they had their stake before them, I hear that once the wind turbines are up they will no longer be able to drill in that section due to wind blockage with the drilling rig.

David, Sec 27 (s. of 22) has Cimarex well Hansen 1-27H completed in 2010. They were just granted a location exception for another well, maybe more to come.

Hey Michael Hutchison I hate to keep asking you to look sections up but a buddy of mine has some Minerals in section 22-14n-9w there are 8 wells staked in the section to the south and he was wanting to know if they were going north or south or if there is anything going on in that section on the occ website. I owe you one!

After the well is drilled there is a 3-6 month wait until a frack crew shows up. If the fracking goes well, there will be a production report shortly after. After the production report they have 6 months to get your first check to you. If the rig is still on your land, you are looking at another year or more before you get a check. That is if everything goes well.

Thank you Francis this is exactly the information we have been trying to find out. This is good news because the rig mgr. told us that these were going to be good wells according to the wells that have already been drilled in that area. Thanks again Farris

Farris, I see 4 recient wells producing gas only in your township and range. They are producing: .2 MMcf, 1 MMcf, 3.7 MMcf and 5.8 MMcf per day. The higher numbers are on the east central side of the township, and the lower numbers are on the south and west side. Yours is north east. Looks like you could have some good wells. Its a crap shoot! You never know where the dice (gas pockets) land.

Michael! Sounds like you’ve got an awesome well down there! It seems around here it’s hit and miss some stay fairly strong but some drop off around 40% within 6 months. I have read that Devon chokes back their wells because they think they can get a better EUR if they slow down the production. Marathon drilled one on my dads place in 2-14n-9w and it wasn’t ever that good in fact recently they had to buy gas from the pipeline to compress down the well to get enough pressure for it to produce anything. I hear when they drilled it they think they went up and down with the bit so there are valleys in the well bore ans so all these valleys are full of water and so it’s hard to get enough pressure to push all the water out of these valleys. I don’t know if this is the real reason or not but it was just never a good well.

Daniel, I’m not trying to upstage you or any thing but there is a faster way. Go to:http://www.occpermit.com/WellBrowse/Home.aspx fill in any of the following: well name and number, API number or section, township and range or leave out section and get all wells in the township. No need for county codes.

The web app. is for researching Judicial Orders such as Spacing, Pooling, Location exception etc. All the stuff that takes place before a drilling permit is issued.

I did that in the beginning, but I didn’t want to look for Drilling Permits, 10 permits at a time.

I have not been able to get into the Judicial Order Database today. For some reason I get an error message saying Google can not connect.

Francois, How are the decline rates up there? Our well in Stephens County tested in Feb, at 250bopd/7.7mmcftd. (wet gas) is now at 200/5.2. Hope it stays there for a while.

David, there are a few recient wells producing near your well. Production #s look good: 24-14n-9w 250bbl oil per day, 1.8 MMcf per day. 32-14n-9w 205bbl oil, 3.8 MMcf per day. Very good numbers indeed!

I have posted on ‘BLOGS’ showing how to find DRILLING PERMITS at the OCC website and how to us the PUBLIC LAND SURVEY SYSTEM. There is a good BLM example.

Thanks guys! Eagle rock operating has drilled and is now in the process of fracturing (we are selling them water) the Blalock 1-34H in section 34-14n-9w. My family has a few acres in this section… I’m hearing they are thinking of drilling another well in this section. QEP drilled and completed a well in 2010, here is the numbers. The Stroud 1-3H well had a peak daily production rate of 6.1 million cubic feet equivalent per day, composed of 2.8 million cubic feet of natural gas, 373 barrels of natural gas liquids and 170 barrels of oil. And this well is in the section due south 3-13n-9w. I was told about 2 weeks ago this well is still producing just over 2 million a day. Which seems really good! I hope one of these days I can figure out the occ website!!

David, The Stroud has some pretty impressive numbers as well. Has anyone ventured a guess on the value of the liquids? The equivalency ratios are based on BTUs and can be misleading. the Oil and NGLs are worth much more per BTU than dry gas.

I can help you out with the OCC site, depending on what you are looking for. It has a lot of good information but don’t expect to see any recent production numbers.

Thanks Daniel, The well browse is pretty easy to navigate for permits, spud reports etc. What most people have trouble with is the Case Processing Database where you can check on Spacing, Pooling orders etc. Thats what I am offering help with.

Daniel, I don’t know that they have form numbers. They are accessed by cause number, relief sought or legal description. You get to the search menu through the Case Processing Database found on the main OCC page. Divisions/oil and gas/databases.

Daniel, Full heading: Case Processing Web Application. You have to follow the instructions to download the Java applet that runs the database.

Mine about 20% on oil and 30% on gas, so on average about the same. Only been on production 3 months.

Not margins but hedges lol.
