Ann: Tuscaloosa Marine Shale , page-4

Grreat post fluff, thanks

And thats what I'm talking about, not doubt we have the oil, its a matter of who's got the tech to get it out.

I know a few successful farmers, they spend half their time looking over the fence at what the neigbours doing, beg borrow or steal it, they guy with the best tech wins.

EOG didn't take long to exhibit their leadership and "know how" in the TMS. They drilled the Dupuy Land Co. 20H-1 in record time. At 583' per day, this is the fastest horizontal well drilled in the play in this latest TMS era. A measured depth of 16907' in 29 days with a lateral of 5169'. Impressive. Many will ask if the western portion of the TMS-East is easier to drill. I would definitely say not. I believe that this is an experienced drilling department "doing what they do".

EOG's results in the Eagle Ford shale are legendary. At the recent Harts DUG Eagle Ford Conference, it was interesting to see how EOG outperforms all of its competition. In that play, their adjacent competitors are not getting nearly the same results. As I've said many times, we're fortunate to have them in the TMS. The bar has just been set higher.
