LEGAL NOTICE
STATE OF LOUISIANA, DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND ENERGY, BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA.
In accordance with the laws of the State of Louisiana, and with particular reference to the provisions of Title 30 of Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950, a public hearing will be held in the Hearing Room, 1st Floor, LaSalle Building, 617 North 3rd Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, at 9:00 a.m. on TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 2026, upon the application of EXPAND OPERATING, LLC.
At such hearing the Department of Conservation and Energy will consider evidence relative to the issuance of Orders pertaining to the following matters relating to the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, in the Greenwood-Waskom Field, Caddo Parish, Louisiana.
1. To permit said applicant to drill, designate and utilize one cross unit horizontal well as an alternate unit well for HA RA SUA, HA RA SUJ, and HA RA SUS, at the location and in the general manner shown on the plat submitted with the application, or at any other legal location within such units, in accordance with LAC 43:XIX.4307 et seq. (Statewide Order No. 29-S), and in lieu of an alternate unit well approved by Office of Permitting and Compliance Order No. 270-MM-158, effective March 21, 2023.
2. To find that the proposed alternate unit well is necessary to efficiently and economically drain a portion of the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, underlying HA RA SUA, HA RA SUJ, and HA RA SUS, which cannot be so drained by any existing well within such units.
3. To provide that with respect to horizontal wells drilled to the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, within or to serve HA RA SUA, HA RA SUJ, and HA RA SUS, where the horizontal portion of the well is cased and cemented back above the top of the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, the distance to any unit boundary and any offset well(s) should be calculated based on the distance to the nearest perforation in the well and not based on the penetration point or terminus.
4. To permit the unit operator of HA RA SUA, HA RA SUJ, and HA RA SUS to produce the unit allowable for each of said units from either the unit well, any alternate unit well, or from any combination thereof, at its discretion.
5. To find that unit production from the proposed cross unit alternate unit well should be allocated to each of the units from which it produces in the same proportion as the perforated length of the lateral in each such unit bears to the total length of the perforated lateral as determined by an "as-drilled" survey performed after the proposed cross unit alternate unit well is drilled and completed, except that the proportion of unit production associated with the perforated length of lateral located within 330' of the common unit boundary between HA RA SUA and HA RA SUJ should be allocated equally between said units, and that unit production should continue to be shared on a surface acreage basis.
6. To provide that all operations on and production from the perforated length of lateral located within 330' of the common unit boundary between HA RA SUA and HA RA SUJ should be considered operations on and production from each of the separate tracts within said units and under the terms of each of the mineral leases or other mineral rights affecting said tracts, regardless of the locations of the perforations within 330' of the common unit boundary between said units.
7. To continue in full force and effect, except to the extent contrary herewith, the pertinent provisions of Order No. 270-MM, effective June 19, 2007, and all applicable Statewide Orders.
8. To consider such other matters as may be pertinent.
The Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A was defined in Order No. 270-MM, effective June 19, 2007, and redefined as to HA RA SUS in Order No. 270-MM-19, effective May 19, 2009.
A plat is available for inspection in the Department of Conservation and Energy in Baton Rouge and Shreveport, Louisiana.
