PDC Conference call with 2nd Qt. results....Great News for Washington County

Operator

Our next question comes from Joseph Allman with JPMorgan.

Joseph D. Allman - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division

When we're looking at the wells in Washington County, is there anything geologically different that might make those wells vary from the wells in Guernsey County?

Barton R. Brookman - Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President

At analyst day, we presented a cross-section that showed the geology and, Joe, I guess I'd phrase it like this: we are probably within 90% to 95% similarity as we go up to Guernsey and over the Belmont and the overall geologic properties we're looking for an unconventional play. Probably the one thing we get asked about a lot is thickness. We do have a deterioration in thickness of the Point Pleasant member from about 100 and 105-foot to 95 to 100-foot. So we lose 5% to 7% of our thickness but there are some other properties as far as some carbonate content and some other things that may attribute more to natural fracturing in the Point Pleasant that we're actually, on the flip side, more encouraged by. So bottom line is, I think if we had the head of geology in here, we couldn't be more encouraged by all the data we have for our Northern Washington County acreage.
