Usually Eagle Ford focused, EOG Resources joins GulfTex as operators finding new success in the Austin Chalk and flowing over 3,000 boe/d from the formation. 

Located in Sugarkane field in Karnes County, Texas, EOG’s first test well in the formation, the Leonard AC Unit 101H, flowed at 3,215 boe/d (85% oil), according to state data, and averaged 2,715 boe/d (77% oil) for 30 days. The second well, the Denali Unit 101H, averaged 3,130 boe/d (72% oil) over its first 20 days, according to EOG. 

Privately held GulfTex is drilling impressive Austin Chalk wells, too. After flowing its first well last month at 3,687 boe/d (82% oil) (see Issue 04), the company completed its second well to even better results. Texas data indicate the Moczygemba Unit #104H flowed 3,775 boe/d (59% oil) and was drilled with a ~3,000-ft lateral.
