Drilling Activity Summary

Description

A 5,250-ft wildcat has been scheduled in Pickens County, Ala., by Jabsco Oil Operating Inc. The venture, #1 Carver 26-11, will be in Section 26-18s-13w. Nearby gas production in this part of the Black Warrior Basin is about 4 miles to the southwest in Elmore Creek Field. Land & Natural Resource Development’s #1 Irvin 5-6 was tested in 2009 flowing 273 Mcf of gas per day from Lewis Sand at 5,216-32 ft. Three other Elmore Creek Field wells remain online, with two wells producing gas from Fayette Sand at 2,944-86 ft and one from Carter Sand at 4,987-5,000 ft. Through 2018, the wells have recovered a combined 358 MMcf of gas. About 5 miles to the northwest of Jabsco’s planned wildcat is Lubbub Creek Field, which yields gas from Fayette Sand at around 2,250 ft and the deeper Lewis Sand. Jabsco is based in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
