"We still have a little over 800,000 net acres in what’s turning out to be a very big play," Walker said. "Everybody’s kind of written off the oil window in the Utica, but we think it’s just being completed the wrong way. It’s an extremely dry shale. It’s less than 5 percent water saturation. We spudded a well about three weeks ago, and we’re going to do a liquid butane frac. So we’re not going to introduce any water into the formation, which we think is creating a permeability barrier when you introduce water into it.

"It will be first liquid butane frac in that area — and maybe in the United States," Walker said. "If that works, it could open up a very big area. It’d be akin to the oil window of the Eagle Ford. So it’s probably our most upside and the thing that I do my daily prayers over. But I’ll have to caution that every time we really need something to … happen, I don’t think in my life it’s ever happened (laughs)."

I heard from one of the gas and oil guys things are looking very good so far! So I guess it's wait and see.

Thanks for the updates.....is there a pipeline connection?  Or will they be trucking out what I hope is 1000BBL of oil per day?
