Red Fork Energy Limited (ASX: RFE) News; Progress Report Tahara #1-28H Well Pawnee County, Oklahoma

September 15, 2011 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Oklahoma based (Australian Securities Exchange listed) oil and gas exploration and production company, Red Fork Energy Limited (ASX: RFE) ("Red Fork" or the "Company") advises that as of 7.00am Central Time on September 12, 2011 the Tahara #1-28H successfully reached its target depth of 8,139 feet.
Approximately 4,200 feet of lateral was successfully drilled in the Mississippi formation, with mud logs and samples confirming several good shows of oil and gas throughout the length of the lateral. Shows of oil were observed in cuttings across some broad zones within the lateral, with numerous gas readings above background also recorded, again over broad zones within the lateral section.
Entry of the lateral in the Mississippi section was determined by open hole log evaluation of wells that penetrated the Mississippi in the immediate area. Production history from vertical Mississippi wells indicates that both the Mississippi Solid and the Mississippi Chat are productive. Based on log evaluation and available production data, the lateral was positioned approximately in the middle of the section. Sample examination indicates that the lateral encountered interbedded limestone and chert beds.
Importantly the Company was able to successfully drill the full designed lateral length without any operational or technical difficulties.
The lateral section of the well will now be prepared for open hole logging activities (full suite of Schlumberger logs). Immediately following this, operations to hang and cement the production liner will commence.
Finally the well will be shut-in awaiting completion operations, which will include perforation of the casing and a multi-stage fracture stimulation program.
Commenting on this release, Red Fork Managing Director, David Prentice, said, "We are very pleased that our operations team and preferred contractors have been able to deliver our first long Mississippian lateral without encountering any operational or technical difficulties. We are also excited that the well bore has encountered oil and gas in broad zones within the Mississippi formation in several zones across the length of the lateral and we look forward to providing further updates as completion operations get underway".
Yours faithfully
David Prentice

Energy Stock News; Osage Exploration and Development (OTCBB: OEDV), along with Its Partners Slawson and U.S. Energy Development Corporation, Increase Net Acreage to 15,000 in Nemaha Ridge Horizontal Mississippi Project

SAN DIEGO, CA - September 14, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy stocks newswire) - Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV), along with its partners Slawson Exploration Company and U.S. Energy Development Corporation, is pleased to announce that we have been able to continue to increase our net land position to 15,000 acres in the highly prospective area east of the Nemaha Ridge in the Oklahoma horizontal Mississippian play.
Slawson Exploration Company is the Operator of the project and owns 45%, U.S. Energy Development Corporation owns 30%, and Osage Exploration has 25%.
"Slawson Exploration as Operator is focused on drilling the project in the fourth quarter this year, yet is bringing a tremendous amount of leadership to the land acquisition process as well. The synergy that has been created by the contribution of U.S. Energy on the land side, coupled with Slawson's and our own efforts, has increased the overall acquisition efficiency dramatically from my perspective," stated Kim Bradford, Chairman and CEO.
"Our approach has been and continues to be acquiring land that we feel is highly prospective, given the substantial amount of well control that we have. At no time have we acquired acreage that we feel might be marginally productive, instead we have leased in high-graded, geologically significant areas east of the Nemaha Ridge. Slawson is moving forward with a timetable of drilling our first wells later this year, because our stated goal is to drill every one of our leasehold acres," stated Greg Franklin, VP Exploration and Director.

Why the Horizontal Mississippian is a Great Play

Point Roberts, WA. August 22, 2011 - Investorideas.com, (www.InvestorIdeas.com), a leader in sector research including oil and gas stocks, provides an inside look at two oil and gas companies’ strategies for drilling in the Horizontal Mississippian Play and why lower costs and a high drilling success rate make this a winner for investors.

Kevin R. White, Senior Vice President, of SandRidge Energy, Inc. (NYSE:SD), and
Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV) share insight into their entrance and participation in the play.

Kim Bradford, President and CEO of Osage Exploration and Development, Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV) recently commented on why his company is focusing on this area and continuing to increase its net acreage. Osage, along with its partners, Slawson Exploration Company, Inc. and U.S. Energy Development Corporation, has now reached 12,000 net mineral acres

“The Mississippian formation is deposited over the majority of the state of Oklahoma, Kansas, and extends northerly throughout North America. During the origin of the Mississippian formation, the North American plate and the South American plate were converging, which resulted in a unique depositional environment. The real target within the Mississippian formation is the chert facies that was formed during this dynamic depositional event. As a result, Osage sought out areas that exhibited a high percentage of the chert facies in existing well logs.

After a regional study that encompassed most of Oklahoma and a significant part of Kansas, Osage chose to pursue the formation near the Nemaha Ridge, which was contemporaneously formed during the deposition of the Mississippian strata. The creation of the Nemaha Ridge caused a fracturing of the Mississippian in general and the chert facies in particular that in our view is crucial to the capacity and quality of the reservoir.

The west side of the Nemaha Ridge is commonly known as the Sooner Trend which has been drilled extensively in the Mississippian and in our opinion is certainly pressure depleted. On the east side of the Nemaha Ridge, there has been considerably less drilling to the Mississippian and correspondingly less depletion, yet due to the percentage of chert and the tectonic dynamic of the Ridge, we feel that this area will perform as well as anywhere else in the play.

Kevin R. White, Senior Vice President of SandRidge Energy, Inc. (NYSE:SD), shared his company insight as to ‘What Makes the Horizontal Mississippian a Great Play’ in a recent interview with Investorideas.com. SandRidge’s strategy, according to its recent investor presentation is to focus on shallow, low cost, conventional plays.

In that light, Kevin White explains their current position, research and history in the Mississippian Formation.

“The Mississippian is shallow, low cost, and is actually a conventional reservoir rock. We spent about three years studying the play and looked at the thousands of vertical wells drilled into the Mississippian formation over the preceding several decades.

The company currently has over 900,000 net acres in the Mississippian. The majority of our property was purchased in 2010, with an average cost of $200 an acre. We really made our move in 2010 and increased our acreage from about 100,000 acres to 800,000 acres during the period from March to December 2010.


Having oil prices at $80 plus during the time we built the largest part of our position, it was an easy decision to see the rates of return would be really good.

In terms of lower costs, it is a shallow horizon, so you are able to kick off and drill horizontally at
about 5500 feet. Since it is true reservoir rock, the formation actually drills faster and easier than other, tighter, resource type rocks. Lastly, because it’s reservoir rock, that has real natural porosity and permeability, you don’t actually have to be as intrusive with your completion process, so it requires a lot less horse power to go in and frac these wells than what some of the other plays require . All of that combined: we can use smaller rigs (thousand horse- power rigs), smaller frac fleets (we require about 12, 500 horse- power on site), those things just add up to less cost.
Also, the type of equipment we are using is not in high demand in any of the other high profile, expensive tighter rock plays that are going on in our industry.

As far as our drilling plans for 2011, our capital plan has us drilling about 140 producers in the Mississippian. “

In asking to clarify that the company has never had a dry hole in this play, Mr. White replied, “That is correct. It’s not really that unusual in a hydrocarbon charged reservoir. There are going to a variety of wells; there are going to be some really good wells, average wells and below average wells. It’s very large petroleum charged reservoir, so it’s not surprising to us.
It’s a thick package of sands, where we have the majority of our acres in 200 to 600 feet in thickness, so it would be unusual to go in and drill the well and complete it and get nothing out of it. “

Alert - (OTCBB:AAPH) Starts Drilling Second Horizontal Well at North Oklahoma Project


Oil and gas investor stock news from Investorideas.com;

SCOTTSDALE, AZ -- / -- August 17, 2011 – American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH) (“American Petro-Hunter” or the “Company”) announced today that drill site operations have commenced in preparation for the next horizontal oil well at the Company’s North Oklahoma Mississippi Project development.

Site arrangements are underway including permitting and requisite documentation in advance of the spud of the newly designated NOW-2H well. The directional drilling contractor has been secured and the Company expects a spud date shortly.

The well is a direct offset to the NOM-1H well, which began production in July and will involve a similar lateral drilling operation into the recently discovered Mississippi reservoir. The Company has purchased full working interest participation in up to 11 additional horizontal wells within the play with the NOW-2H becoming the 2nd well implemented under the planned development program.

The leases in the horizontal play are being developed on 160 acre parcels and the well spacing will be evaluated after each well is put into production for a period of 30-45 days prior to engineering any additional infill wells. This prudently engineered plan will ensure the maintenance of reservoir integrity over the life of the proposed 24 month drilling schedule. The program is envisioned to involve the drilling of approximately one horizontal Mississippi formation well every 30 to 60 days.

Given the dramatically increased levels of activity in the area, rig availability has become a key scheduling issue. As a result, the Company and partners have accelerated the spud date of the NOW-2H and have further determined that the previously announced vertical NOS-2-22 required a shift to October based on current rig logistics which ultimately provides greater overall benefits allowing for improved operational efficiency across both wells.
