EL RENO, Okla., Jan. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Environmental Energy Services, Inc. announced today that the previously touted well on the Lansing Sands should be completed later this week and they expect to be delivering fuel by the end of next week. Once production begins, it is estimated to deliver an average of 500,000 cubic feet of natural gas per day.
"It took us longer than expected to complete the well due to winter weather, but considering this is our first natural gas well, I am very pleased with the results," stated A. Leon Blaser, EESV Chairman and CEO. "We are planning for this to be the first of many successful drilling projects for 2006."
Due to the high pressure of the gas in the Lansing Sands, EESV has decided to delay gas extraction from the Keyes Sands so that they do not interfere with the high yield out of the Lansing Sands. EESV plans to pursue the Keyes Sands in the future.
EESV also plans to announce a new drilling program shortly with drilling to commence in Q2 2006. The first well will be located in Louisiana where the leases have already been obtained.
