PUBLIC NOTICE - - - - 4 - RED RIVER BULL BAYOU FIELD 25-362 and 25-363 LEGAL NOTICE STATE OF LOUISIANA, OFFICE OF CONSERVATION, BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA. In accordance with the laws of the State of Louisiana, and with particular reference to the provisions of Title 30 of Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950, a public hearing will be held in the Hearing Room, 1st Floor, LaSalle Building, 617 North 3rd Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, at 9:00 a.m. on TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2025, upon the application of AZUL OPERATING LLC. At such hearing the Commissioner of Conservation will consider evidence relative to the issuance of Orders pertaining to the following matters relating to the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, in the Red River Bull Bayou Field, DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. 1. To authorize Azul Operating LLC to drill, designate and utilize one cross unit horizontal well to serve as the substitute unit well for HA RA SU70 and alternate unit well for HA RA SU73 and eight cross unit horizontal wells to serve as alternate unit wells for HA RA SU70 and HA RB SU73, at the locations and in the general manner shown on the plat submitted with the application, (with the substitute unit well to be drilled in lieu of the substitute unit well designated for HA RA SU70 authorized by Office of Conservation Order No. 109-X-381, effective September 19, 2023) and to approve an exception to the spacing provisions of Order No. 109-X-2, provided that said cross unit horizontal wells will be perforated no closer than 100’ from any north or south unit boundary and not closer than 330’ from any east or west unit boundary, other than the common boundary between the affected units. 2. In addition to the request for exceptional locations as to the common boundary between the affected units, Azul requests a waiver and/or exception to the well spacing provisions in Order No. 109-X-2 and the 109-X Series of Orders to allow the first and last perforation point in the proposed wells to be located no closer than 100’ from the north and south unit lines and no closer than 200’ to any well on a competitive unit completed in, drilling to, or for which a permit has been granted to drill to the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A. 3. To find that the proposed horizontal wells are necessary to efficiently and economically drain a portion of the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, underlying the unit or units on which they are proposed to be drilled which cannot be efficiently and economically drained by any existing well on such units(s), will prevent waste, avoid the drilling of unnecessary wells, protect correlative rights and promote the full and efficient development of the natural resources of this state. 4. To provide that if the horizontal portion of a well is cased and cemented back above the top of the Haynesville Zone, Reservoir A, the distance to any unit boundary and offset well(s) will be calculated based on the distance to the nearest perforation in the well and not on the penetration point or terminus of the well. 5. To provide that production from the cross unit wells shall be separated and metered individually and that this information shall be reported in the manner prescribed by the Office of Conservation. 6. To provide that the unit allowables for the affected units may be produced from the unit well, from any alternate unit well, or from any combination of such wells serving the unit, at the discretion of the operator. 7. To provide that production from a cross unit horizontal well shall be allocated to each unit penetrated by the well in the same proportion as the perforated length of the lateral in each such unit bears to the total length of the perforated lateral as determined by an “as drilled” survey performed after the well has been drilled and completed. 8. Except insofar as set forth above, to confirm and continue in full force and effect the provisions of Order No. 109-X-2, effective August 28, 2008, as amended and supplemented by the 109-X Series of Orders, the units created thereby, and of all applicable Statewide Orders. 9. To consider such other matters as may be pertinent. The Haynesville Zone was defined in Order No. 109-X, effective June 25, 2008. A plat is available for inspection in the Office of Conservation in Baton Rouge and Shreveport, Louisiana. http://dnr.louisiana.gov/conshearings All parties having interest therein shall take notice thereof.
