Mainland Resources, Inc. (MNLU.OB) recently announced an update on the Haynesville Shale, located in Jefferson County, MS:
As of September 27, 2010, the Company is drilling ahead on the Burkley-Phillips No.1 well at 16,531 feet. Since the last activity update on August 16, 2010, the Company drilled to a depth of 12,940 feet where it conducted electric line logging, acquired side-wall cores in selected zones and successfully installed and cemented a 9 5/8” casing string. As previously reported, the well penetrated a sand package preliminarily identified as the Lower Tuscaloosa Massive Sand with approximately 50 feet of thickness exhibiting elevated mud log gas readings. Further analysis of the sand, utilizing electric line logging and side-wall cores, has warranted the initiation of a technical and commercial analysis, which is currently in progress.
The forward plan calls for drilling operations to continue to a depth of approximately 19,200 feet where wireline logging will be conducted to analyze the current open-hole interval and then a string of protective casing will be installed and cemented. At that point, the Company will begin drilling the final section of the well targeting the Haynesville Shale and will continue the drilling program to an anticipated depth of 22,000 feet.
Nick Atencio, CEO, states, “We are pleased with the drilling progress to this point and anticipate we will continue to make similar progress to the programmed total depth. As warranted, we will continue to analyze any secondary targets we encounter as we drill through the Hosston and Cotton Valley intervals.”
Management will continue to provide updates as milestone events are reached on the well.

Comstock Resources, Inc. (CRK): Haynesville Shale Update
By Andrea: http://oilshalegas.com
Comstock Resources, Inc. (CRK) today provided an update on the Haynesville shale located in North Louisiana:
As was previously reported with the Company's second quarter operating results, Comstock has been experiencing significant delays in completing its Haynesville or Bossier shale wells due to the limited availability of high pressure pumping services. On September 30, 2010 the Company has 26 Haynesville or Bossier shale wells drilled and waiting on completion. Going forward, Comstock has been successful in obtaining pressure pumping and other related services which will allow it to frac 14 wells before the end of the year. With six operated rigs drilling in the Haynesville and Bossier shale, Comstock expects to drill another ten wells in the fourth quarter giving the Company an estimated 22 wells to carry over into 2011 for completion. In response to the weak natural gas prices, Comstock plans to release one of the six rigs in November and is considering moving an additional rig to South Texas to be utilized in its Eagle Ford shale drilling program in 2011.
Comstock also announced today that the Company has entered into an agreement with a major service provider to provide the Company with a dedicated frac crew for its North Louisiana operations in early 2011. The dedicated crew will allow the Company to complete its backlog of Haynesville and Bossier shale wells during 2011 as well as keep current with the Company's 2011 anticipated drilling activity. In addition, Comstock is in the process of finalizing agreements for completion services for its 2010 and anticipated 2011 Eagle Ford shale drilling program in South Texas.

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.
