Report summary

One of the major themes across the US Lower 48 is the potential upside provided by stacked pay. First touted in the Williston and Permian basins, talk of stacked pay potential has taken flight to South Texas with operators targeting the Upper Eagle Ford. Across the three most prospective sub-plays, we believe operators could unlock an additional 6,600 locations providing 3.4 bnboe of reserves.

Most Upper testing to date has been in Karnes Trough Condensate and Edwards Condensate, which have similar vertical depths, and the Maverick Condensate which is notably shallower.What's up in the Upper Eagle Ford: Table 1What's up in the Upper Eagle Ford: Table 2
