Drilling Activity Summary

Description

A horizontal Barnett shale oil producer has been completed by EOG Resources Inc. of Houston in Montague County (RRC Dist. 9), Texas, on the north flank of the Fort Worth Basin. The #1H Seibold, R.L. Steelman Survey, A-1324, was tested for an initial daily potential of 281 bbl. of 38.3-degree-gravity oil, 102,000 cu. ft. of gas and 528 bbl. of water through acid- and fracture-stimulated perforations at 8,199-12,106 ft. The total depth is 12,215 ft., and true vertical depth is 8,372 ft. The top of the Barnett shale was logged at 7,465 ft. This year, the company plans to drill 60 wells in this part of the Barnett play, which features a combination of oil and liquids-rich gas.
