Wells

Anadarko Petroleum Corp. (APC) wants to sell its stakes in 155 producing wells on about 100,000 gross acres in the Washakie Basin of Wyoming and the Sand Wash Basin of Colorado. Total production for the fields, which are 96% weighted to natural gas, averaged 39.4 MMcfe/d net in the first seven months of the year, which is equal to nearly 5% of APC’s daily gas production in the Rockies in 2Q2007.

Independent producers are playing an increasingly more important role in Texas and its energy future after drilling 96% of the oil and gas wells in 2006, according to a study conducted by the Texas Alliance of Energy Producers (TAEP).

Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and Chevron U.S.A. Inc. have begun a joint exploration venture on 200,000 net mineral acres Chevron owns within the Delaware Basin of West Texas, acreage that overlaps and extends westward from Anadarko’s existing leasehold, which includes the rapidly growing Haley natural gas field. The targeted area, noted Anadarko, has already produced a cumulative 2 Tcf of natural gas.

Up to 3,100 new gas wells will be allowed under a new infill drilling plan approved by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for the Jonah Field in south-central Sublette County, WY. Operators EnCana Corp., McMurray Oil and BP America estimate that the energy project could provide 8 Tcf of additional natural gas production.
