Section 196, block 34

Does anyone have any info on activity in this area? We have had some puzzling communications from Shell, and I’m starting to look into it a little more deeply. Thanks.

Cindy,

After checking I see where Shell Western E & P has 3 permitted locations in Section 196/Block 34…(API 475-37329, 330 & 331)

Well 37329 was spud(begin drilling) on January 24, 2018/Well 37330 was spud on February 3, 2018/Well 37331 was spud on February 15, 2018. I can’t tell you what the status is at this time but try to be patient. You might try to call Shell and ask for an update.

Thank you so much, Clint. You are a treasure trove of information! I’m still puzzled as to why they are withholding royalties until $11,000 is paid back. But now I have a place to start.
