Royalty check is better than a picture of a rig that comes & then goes. Hopefully the royalty check stays around a little longer. Sometimes, but not always. LOL

Michael, I remember those days too! The Poteets and Whatleys. I imagine sometime Continental will choose to drill other formations.
Royce, It’s not over yet CLR is drilling 6 multi units in 5, 8 & 17-2n/4w. We only get about 15-20% but I can’t complain. Five are permitted and they recently spud the first one. The applications said they plan more drilling south out of 17 and that means into 20!

Hutch…I love hearing about these new wells for our area in 2n 4w! Even if they are not on us it makes me think their might be some good stuff in the future hopefully for 16 and 34. Let me know if you hear any more and I’ll try to keep an eye open for the new rigs on your 17 and others. Do you know to what zones they are going?
Linda: The new wells in 2N-4W are for the Springer formation.
Linda, the Forrest wells, mentioned above, are targeting the Woodford but are permitted for some others in case they are inadverttently.encountered.Screenshot_2019-12-14-16-26-41|312x500
Hutch… All of a sudden this new form is starting to be interesting like it was back when the blank page 2N/4W started to fill in. Of course it’s always great to hear of any action in the diggins! Hopefully your small percentage will be a big winner.
Thanks L & L great to hear from you!
see the date is the same as hearing all past paper work has been done the same way and it’s like wrong so what Is the reason behind now going back again to a hearing for for horizontal drilling and then 23rd for relief pooling and multi unit horizontal drilling and when that’s done should we have it since the sections are still 640 acres with wells already and more wells getting drilled ask for royaltys and bonuses for every thing that is and will be in those sections 26 is S/2 Section 26-1S-4W and sec 35 is township 1 south range 4 west stephen receive a 25 % or more royalty of each one and so as stated for section 35 as well from each well being on those 2 sections that they are splitting up and dividing into smaller acreage but still a 640 acre section in this also I ask about another section this is what I have only on this other spot is s/2 SE/4 garvin co Oklahoma Deka
Exploration any clues to this thank y’all for y’all’s very informative knowledge happy drilling everyone’
If you could put punctuation in the sentences, it would help clarify your question. It is hard to figure out your what you are asking. I am going to try. Think of the geology under the surface of the earth as a multi layer birthday cake. There are multiple reservoirs. Each time the operator wants to drill a well, they must decide which layer that are going to aim for. For each layer, they must ask permission from the OCC (Oklahoma Corporation Commission) to have it spaced as to how many acres they intend to drain, ask permission to drill a horizontal well in that reservoir, ask permission to have a location exception for the well if it is not in the middle of the spacing, get a permit, etc. They have to do the same thing in each section in which they intend to drill.
They can change their mind. If they want to drill a horizontal well into two sections for the Woodford target, they must file all the paperwork for each section and do all the proper steps for that reservoir. If they change their minds, they must file for the new reservoir. Sometimes, they use the same case number and just amend the application as that is easier. You will get mail for each amendment.
Does that answer your question? In this case, 89 Energy may or may not be the final operator.

You are not required to attend the hearings.
Thanks but I want to go and why was several folks are talking about putting they minerals I.n the market i talked to 300 folks on this and they are the ging going else where and running them off more money gets the stuff
Thanks for this good information Michael! Todd answered Linda that it is the Springer formation. It will be interesting with the slowdown in drilling how soon they might start in 17-20.
Royce, that was incorrect, they are targeting the Woodford.
Was hoping the new drilling might target the Springer as that would give our sections more room for exploration. Section 16 has (I believe) 6 wells going to the Woodford and one well going to the Springer. Section 34 has one well I believe going to the Woodford and none to the Springer. We were traveling down through the diggings the other night but were in a hurry and turned east instead of west toward the rigs so I’m not sure where they sat but we could see three rigs in the distance which could very well be around sections 17 and 20. If I get a chance I’ll run down and check it out. My chances before Christmas might be scarce though. Best Wishes for everyone to have a great Christmas! Remember the reason for the season!
Linda, those rigs have surface locations in 5-2n/4w less than a mile South of Garvin County line. So far 3 of the 6 have been spud, 3 others have been spud going North into 32-3n/4w. One of ours will have surface in 32 drilling south through 5 & 8 with bottom hole in 17-2n/4w
Linda, the Mark 1H-27X well in section 34 is a Springer formation well.Fortunately, we have a depth clause.
Thank you Martha.
Well, I guess the Springer formation will have to wait a while in our sections, Michael. Maybe some day. I imagine it will be worth the wait.
Thanks Rick for the info… I was thinking the Mark went to the Woodford. I wish they would drill some more in section 34 2n 4w where ever they want to take it to! Was thinking to start with after they didn’t go very far into 34 with the Mark from the north that they might start from the south maybe in Sec. 3 1n, 4w and head down through 34. But that evidently hasn’t happened. Still hoping.
Me too!! We definitely got the short end of the stick with the Mark well.
