This is a post of mine from another board. We are talking about the Shelby county well and the well that is across the lake in LA.
The well is in the next state. It is across the lake which is on the border. The Tuscaloosa sands stretch across several states. There is 2 different sands that I know of and now there is a shale in between the 2 sands that stretches north into Mississippi and from New Orleans to Texas. I would call the statement about it being the adjacent well a good one according to the geology under the surface. Not that just because the well in LA is making 11,000bpd means our well will, but it is a good indication of production, total rates, type of oil, and lets us know that there is lots in reserve. I am looking at the shale play in Mississippi right now. There is 8 to 10 billion of recoverable oil in just the shale of the Tuscaloosa and that is at a 10% recovery. It is possible that we could see very high production on our Shelby county leases. GO TECO
