Keep your eyes peeled for reports on an Anadarko-drilled well in SE Texas. I have the well data on it, and it's going to be as big as they allow it to be. That kind of porosity and pressure have not been seen onshore before to my knowledge.

The oil bidness isn't dead in this country, despite the efforts of the enviromental commies.

I'll look for that well and I couldn't agree more. Get out of our friggin' way and we'll show the country what $4.60 gas prices will do to a free market O&G bidness. We paid out the wells I referred to in less than 4 months, at an average price around $3.00.

I'm just a dumb old landman who happened to hook up with an old childhood friend who has his masters in geology. We been having so much fun it's scary.

On a side note, when we grew up together in Farmington, NM, his Dad was Division Geo for El Paso Products (exploration arm of the pipeline co.), my Dad was Division Land Manager for EP and another EP Geo lived on our block, an obscure fellow named Robert Barrett. And the rest, my friend , is history.

There are some dumb old landmen, but you're not one of them. Trust me.

I got my geology degree from NMSU. I enjoyed your conversation. Only worked in the patch for 15 months then the bottom fell out(85).
