See Page 8

I was told by VanMeter (Engineer above) that if the Marcellus is wet, the Burkett is wet also.  In fact the Burkett is proving to be slightly wetter than the Marcellus below it.

How is the Upper Devonian in the dry gas areas of central Pa in Indiana, Jefferson or Clearfield counties?

Farmgas,

On page 23 of the Range document the reservoir fairways are marked.

 Is the Marcellus the source rock for the Burket ?

paleface,

It is my understanding that the Burkett Shale is a separate layer about 300' above the Marcellus.

 Hey Brian Powers are you out there help us out with this.

Paleface,

 

The Upper Devonian shales are separate organic packages.  Not sourced by the Marcellus. Located as Oliver Perry describes.

 This suggests western PA looks good it is data from 2010?https://etda.libraries.psu.edu/paper/10978/

Paleface,

Nice find.  Table 2 shows Butler County among the highest Gamma Ray counts.

The Burkett (Upper Devonian) wells shown in the recent Rex and Range presentations lie within “Reservoir #1” shown on page 23 of the Range presentation linked above.  The Isopach shown on page 7 (sorry I said page 8 above) of the linked Rex presentation is consistent with the Range presentation.

Range has stated that their first four Burkett wells outperformed their first four Marcellus wells (guessing that these we back in the 2004-5 time frame).

As I mentioned above, where the Marcellus is wet, the Burkett is wet.  So as we move eastward, the Burkett will be dry.

Regards,

Phil

 It shows a good organic percentage per volume and weight and a good reservoir seal if it was made there it didn't have to travel and 150ft. thick in spots.Whats not to like.

And you have the pad and all the mid-stream stuff in place from the Marcellus drilling!!
