Western Haynesville: the return of high impact Lower 48 exploration
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
US E&Ps without exposure to the emerging Western Haynesville play want it. This new E&A area consistently yields some of the largest wells in Lower 48. Early rates exceed 30 mmcfd and the string of successes is unmatched. The prize is quick access to the rapidly expanding Gulf Coast gas market and advantageous pricing. Most Western Haynesville activity sits only 250 miles from major LNG projects near the Texas-Louisiana border. Processing, storage, and midstream projects are underway, presenting easier paths to monetization. Costs must drop but they’re already falling – a pattern typical of every early-stage shale play. Other Haynesville analogues suggest drilling and completion (D&C) costs could fall another 30% through technology and experience.
