Drilling?

Has any drilling started in Terry County yet? Our land is west of Brownfield on 380/82.

About 6 weeks ago, a Midland company reentered and drilled deeper an old well east/northeast of Rich Lake (about mid-way between Brownfield/Meadow) east of the highway. Reports I've gotten was discovery of three good shale zones; however, the well was capped primarily because of the inability of the drilling rig to do horizontal drilling. Further information is that most of the rigs capable of drilling horizontal are busy in the Permian Basin - so it might be awhile. Another bit of info is that a discovery well was drilled in the Gomez area (west of Brownfield) and plans underway for completion. That's all I know.

e dubose, Any info or activity on the permitted location on the 303 curve would be greatly appreciated . We own property nearby but live in Ohio , Thanks

I know of three wells drilled and completed in the Gomez area. Don't know the results other than was told that tank batteries have been built - indicative of producing wells.

We just received an offer from Threshold Land Services. They offered $400 per acre for a 3 year lease with a 2 yr extension and 1/5 royalty. They said that they planned to start drilling on a location in Terry County on Jan 9. We told them we would think about the offer. It looks like $500 an acre with a 25% royalty is what most people are wanting for their leases now.

I have also heard of some producing wells...just how much production, I don't know.

To Nancy..I would agree that $500 and 1/4 royalty is the minimum you should accept.

Thanks, guess we will hold on; looks like most of the drilling has been the south part of Terry. I think we are more central.

Nancy, were you able to negotiate a better lease? Did the landman give you any idea on production figures in the area?

We never returned the landman's call. I had told another landman about 6 months ago that his offer of $250 per acre was too low and we expected something about $500 an acre. He agreed that his offer was too low but that was all he could offer at that time. I have never been told what production figures for the area would be. It would certainly be interesting to know.
