GDP has completed its initial horizontal Haynesville Shale well, the Chesapeake Energy Corporation-operated Holland 17H-1, which tested at a rate of approximately 14.5 MMcf per day on a 24/64 inch choke with 6,000 psi. The well, which was drilled to 16,200 feet, had a horizontal displacement of approximately 4,400 feet (3,800 feet cased), and is located in the Company's Bethany-Longstreet area in Caddo Parish, Louisiana.

Haynesville Shale - GDP Goodrich Petroleum Update
Goodrich Petroleum ( GDP ) has come out and given shareholders an update of their Haynesville Shale operations:
HAYNESVILLE SHALE ACTIVITY UPDATE
The Company has completed the T. Swiley No. 5 well in the northwest portion of the Minden field in Rusk County, Texas. The well is a vertical Haynesville Shale test with an initial production rate of 1,300 Mcf per day from approximately 150' of net Haynesville Shale pay. The well is the fourth vertical well the Company has drilled and tested in the Haynesville Shale formation in the Minden and Beckville fields in East Texas, where the Company maintains a 100% working interest in approximately 39,000 net acres. The Company's initial horizontal Haynesville Shale test in East Texas is planned for the fourth quarter of 2008.
In North Louisiana, the company has logged the Hall No. 9-1, which is the third vertical Haynesville Shale test in the Central Pine Island area of Caddo Parish, Louisiana. The Hall No. 9-1, in which the Company owns a 50% interest, logged approximately 315' of pay in the Haynesville Shale with excellent gas shows. Also in North Louisiana, in the Company's joint venture with Chesapeake Energy, the initial horizontal Haynesville Shale test in the Bethany-Longstreet field is planned to spud this week in northern DeSoto Parish, as well as an additional vertical Haynesville Shale test in the Longwood field in Caddo Parish. A second rig is planned to be added to the Chesapeake joint venture in October.
The Company currently expects to drill 16-18 (12-13 vertical and 4-5 horizontal) Haynesville Shale wells in East Texas/North Louisiana by the end of 2008.
Gil Goodrich, Goodrich's Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, "The increase in proved reserves at mid-year further illustrates the success of our strategy to rapidly convert non-proven 2P and 3P reserves into the proven classification and increase proven net asset values. We are very pleased with our drilling results in the first half of this year adding approximately 75.5 Bcfe, including the 11.4 Bcfe of production replaced during the first six months of the year, on drilling and development capital expenditures of approximately $165 million. Our recent acreage acquisition in Nacogdoches County further expands our footprint in the Angelina River Trend where we have experienced continued success during 2008 for both the Travis Peak and James Lime formations. Finally, our nine vertical Haynesville Shale wells drilled to date, which have been strategically spaced across our 60,500 net acres in North Louisiana and East Texas, have significantly de-risked our core Haynesville Shale acreage. This positions us extremely well to begin the development and exploitation of the Shale with horizontal drilling, and we are excited to begin this aggressive horizontal Haynesville development in the next few weeks."

Haynesville Shale Natural Gas Field
For the full article.....click here
http://blackberrystocks.com/haynesvilleshale.html
The Haynesville Shale Play Discovery Project is based on shale as the subsurface source of natural gas which is located in Louisiana.
The shale is a rock formation composed of clay-sized particles deposited and buried in the north Louisiana geological area more than 170 million years ago during the Jurassic time.
This area has been one hot play for Natural Gas Companies as this shale could contain a lot of Natural Gas.
Many companies started buying acres of land in and around this area two years ago in hopes to strike it big. Petrohawk was already drilling a gas deposit known as Cotton Valley, a separate deposit that runs roughly 3,000 feet above parts of Haynesville’s deposits, when it became aware of Haynesville in 2006.They must use special technology to access this project as it is below 10,000 feet.
