Cana Woodford Shale (AKA Anadarko Woodford) - Oil & Gas Discussion archives

Okay, Ron! I’ll get right on that! Thanks!

bod -barrel of oil a day x75.00 divided by 640 = per acre.

mcf -thousand cubic feet x 3.00 or 4.00 divided by 640.

Now take your royalty interest off that and you will have per day per acre to you.

No, I was saying I was the one who put my foot in my mouth, figuratively, of course. I appreciated Ron raising my awareness of “the obvious” which I hadn’t yet discovered. Like I said before, I’ll learn.

I have had my foot there once or twice.

Jo first of all welcome to the forum. I see you have listed Topeka Ks. as home. My wife and i had the plesure of working in Topeka at the Villages Group Home for six years and really enjoyed the town and the people, Since there is activity in your area you will probably receive several offers varying in price to sell your minerals, my opinon is i would not sell. To keep up with the current activity in Grady County you will probably be good in watching that forum and do not worry about Solicitation it is not allowed on the forum. Do not be afaid of asking questions it is how we all learn and there are some very helpful people on the forum.

Thank you Ron!

Hey everyone, been awhile since I’ve been on here, I have a question Eagle rock has drilled and completed a well in section 34-14n-9w in Canadian county it has been online for about 45 days. They came back and staked 4 more wells and o was wondering if there is anything on the OCC website I’ve been watching for intent to drill but haven’t seen one yet. Thanks for any info.

David here you go.

I have been wondering how the oil companies come up with the dollar amounts for each product, like the price of oil. When do they calculate this, is it an average for the last 30 days?

Dan, The prices are set daily. Here is a pipeline price bulletin. Just click on the date to see the price paid for various crudes from different locations. Oklahoma Sweet and West Texas Intermediate are usually priced pretty close. The 2nd link is to Commodity Exchange energy prices which includes natural gas. The pipeline prices for crude are closer to what we will be paid on as royalty owners.

Just as a matter of general information I post this reference that came out in the Houston Chronicle today. Much as been made of in the drop of natural gas prices on these forums. I have made reference several times to the success around the U.S. in extracting the gas and oil from the shales. I made reference in one thread that when the U.S. expertice is applied to the gas and oil basins around the world the price of natural gas is likely to remain where we are for a very long time.

In today’s Houston Chronicle reference is made to Mexico where the northern part of the country holds 600 Trillion cubic feet of natural gas in the shales. That is a huge number and may not be exact but it is probably not that far off. Much of it is in the Eagleford Shale in Mexico which is rapidly being developed across South Texas. Wells there are making up to 5000 barrels a day of oil along with the gas.

Now Mexico does not have the equipment or training to make the application like in the U.S. But, they will get it sooner or later along with the rest of the world. The manufacturing of all this equipment that can do what is being done in the U.S. is going to be a long time boon for oil field equipment suppliers.

So the reason for this long range forcast is to remind the mineral owners not to count on rising natural gas prices to increase their monthly revenue. The price will stay around $3 per thousand for some time. What will have as large if not larger impact is the price of oil. There is no telling where that will go in the future because oil is political.

The U.S. uses about 25 Trillion cubic feet of gas a year. The gas in Mexico could totally suppy the U.S. for 24 years if it was totally developed.

Don, I read the article also, aside from the considerations you mentioned my first thought was… “Good maybe they will finally create some jobs over there”. But history tells me the politicans will manage to screw that up!

It would seem like a good portion? Price always fluctuates crazy when a Caine moves in into the heart of the region. What do you think maybe 15-20%? Think the EIA might list it.

Thanks, ,I understand about the well denisty, it’s the Exception to rule 165:10-13-9 and rule 165:10-17-11 that I don’t understand.

I wish the OCC and the lawyers would write Orders etc so someone could make sense of the results.

I am refering to cause 201203298 and Order 599626.

I guess if I knew what Rule 165:10-13-9 and 165:10-17-11 say, I may understand more.

The request for exception was accompanied a Well Density request , cause 201203297.

Anyone know what all this means?

Don, Do you knower percentage that comes from GOM?

The following link will let you read the two rules you cite:

ftp://204.87.70.98/occrules/Ruleshtm/forweb04newrules.htm

You’ll need to do a “find” on 165:10-13-9 and 165:10-17-11

The well density request means they want to drill more than one well in the unit you cite. This does not mean they will drill more wells, they just have the OCC permission to do so if they choose to do so.

The other items, I have no idea.

No I don’t.

I think I have finally figured out what the Exception request was that XTO

withdrew.

The increase density well Hobbs 2-30H was planned to be drilled in the NW corner of Section 30 3S 3E, with both SHL and BHL in Section 30… The Hobbs 1-30H’s SHL is in Section 31 3S 3E and the BHL is in Section 31.

I guess XTO is going to use the SHL of Hobbs 1-30 for both wells.
