There were 20 wells across the state producing oil and gas from the Tuscaloosa trend on April 20, according to Louisiana Department of Natural Resources data.
Good ole Spindletop we have going,

If this is true, this is pretty awesome. My family owns a whole bunch of land all up in that area

Drill baby drill. Just don't frick up the aquifer in the process.

About 7 miles down 421 and 1 mile north a well is being drilled. Another will be drilled in June on Hey 967 and a permit filed for another in the Tunica area. A pad was made 6 miles west of 61 north of 421 about 2 years ago and hasn't been touched

Sorry. I'm tired of being trashy and have thought about quitting and going on welfare.

If I'm not mistaken, the whet wells that produce Baton Rouge's water are around 1600'. I seem to remember that from a project in college. I'm not familiar with large scale land fracking, but in offshore sandstone reserves, the frack takes place when the frack fluids penetrate the porous formation and then the viscosity allows the fluid to build pressure and break the rock. There are non-permeable geological layers above pay zones. They are the reason the oil is trapped there. If the frack fluids can't penetrate the rock, it cant break it. I wouldn't want to frack 10' from a water source, but there are literally dozens of layers of geological formations that could be separating the water source from the pay zone

BR has several and several different aquifer zones. You're pretty correct in everything you just said. Of course, the water we drink that is from rain in north MS, is 2000 years oldish
Not to say that wells wouldn't potentially be affected immediately.

Get a bad cement job on your upper casing and that's when you have damage to the water table

Exactly. Dumbasses. Oil field trash paying state income taxes and buying shite is a big reason our state kept upright during the 08-'09 economic nosedive.

That's why they pump 2500 barrels of cement into a 500 barrel hole or until the cellar turns purple. Not much left up to chance in the oil field these days. Also a pressure test is completed before completion moves onto location.
& drill baby drill!

Crap! Just misses my land in Lawrence County.

I think my Dad has been waiting on someone to put a well on his land for 5 years now

These smaller companies still screw it up. I know because we have to wait on the squeeze job. I would like to go back in the field and work there as I could move back into my house in BR.

The land I mentioned had oil talks as far back as I can remember. I'm 38. Finally there is something happening for that family.

Mineral rights on 80 acres.
My family has mineral rights somewhere in Texas. I know my mother gets a $40 check each month.
How much would that go up if this actually turned into an oil boom?
