I THink your news is a little late JR, last I heard today, is that they were still drilling they would be somewhere around 17300 or so give or take a few, pressures are constant, mud weights are constants, and the sands are excellant... I would suspect the sands are like the mouth of a river,,, the heavier sand the deeper they get, the fine sand at the top of the zone, and suspect the porosity is increasing.... Accorind to SnP NR from Peters and co they were looking for a foothold somewhere around 17500 feet... bare in mind they need about 50 feet or so to set the casing into some good quality shale. Everything so far points to all things being better than ELH1R as they have not encountered the mud losses they did on ELH. With CC they are prepared for every eventuality. ANd theya re deeper They are using cello flake and walnut shells giving them a better filtercake on the open hole... W VA - as soon as the rig is back working I waould assume early next week,,, I would think TD to be somewhere 3 to 4 weeks hence... Dig yourself up a copy of the Nov 8 O&G Journal there is a write up in it They are tying in the existing wells now... this one will go along with it as soon as its drilled. See ya Taff
