Join the Business Development Study Group at the Four Seasons Hotel as we hear from our distinguished speaker on recent developments in the Eagle Ford Shale, whose characteristics change markedly as it sweeps in an arc from just west of Houston to the Rio Grande. The popular format of a Business & Social Networking hour, with complimentary Hors’ D’ Oeuvres and a cash bar, followed by an hour-long program, will begin at 5:30 pm in the Mezzanine.

Many companies have announced substantial positions in the Eagle Ford Shale. However, with three distinct areas, which Eagle Ford presents the best opportunities? The eastern corridor where the Edwards and Sligo margins overlap? The triangle formed by the separation of the Edwards and Sligo from Live Oak County to the Rio Grande? The back reef area from Northern McMullen to the Maverick Basin? How do depths, pressures and temperatures vary? What are the “oily” areas? Areas of high condensate yields? Dry gas? Are impurities (C02, H2S) an issue? What are the long term effects of retrograde? Is sufficient water available for fracturing? Are there infrastructure problems to address? What is the scope of industry operations in each area? What are recent developments that can provide keys to future activity?
