Unitization: Exploration Made Easier [Abstract]

David Comeaux

ABSTRACT

The Office of Conservation and the Louisiana State Legislature have, in recent years, implemented policies designed to facilitate the drilling of wells in Louisiana. Unit policies like the "Waiver of Test in the Field" and economic policies like the "Severance Tax Relief Program" have already benefited numerous operators in their exploration endeavor and remain in effect for future companies to exploit. Those companies with a working knowledge of these and other strategies are a step ahead of the crowd, and stand to benefit from the exciting potential of one of North America's most prolific gas provinces.
