Cordillera holds 254,000 net acres in the Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma.

The Granite Wash inches forward as the industry deploys unconventional techniques to a multiple stacked play. Apache’s $2.85 billion acquisition of Cordillera Energy creates the play’s largest landholder and consolidates the central corridor.

The saturation of liquids throughout the Granite Wash play is what makes it one of the more attractive and economic unconventional plays today.

Fracture-stimulation jobs in the Granite Wash liquids-rich play of the western Anadarko Basin use 250,000 barrels of fluid and operators are completing an average of a well a day in the Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma.

A revival in the Anadarko Basin has awakened a geologically challenging, liquids-prolific tight sands resource play.

Eagle Rock Energy Partners LP may have more of its operations weighted toward its upstream business, but that doesn't mean it's not focused on its midstream business.

The Pennsylvanian-aged Granite Wash tight-sands play is in the midst of a rejuvenation.

Recent completions in both Oklahoma and Texas show the Granite Wash is a contender in the unconventional game

Dr. Randy Keller and three operators discuss the play’s geology, well results and economics in ‘The Hot Play’ webinar.

As upstream activities ramp up in the play, midstream operators are looking for new build-out projects in the Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma.

The extremely complex and heterogeneous Granite Wash play offers numerous challenges, but the payoff can be impressive. (From the Granite Wash Playbook)

Forest Oil's recently announced fourth and fifth horizontal wells with average initial production rates of 37 MMcf/d in Wheeler County, Texas, confirm the positive trends seen of late in the Texas Granite Wash. Sub US $7 million drill and complete costs make drilling individual wells in this play a highly economic and perhaps highly repeatable proposition. (From the Granite Wash Playbook)

Granite Wash reservoirs have produced since the 1950s and 1960s. Horizontal drilling and multistage hydraulic fracs have turned marginal and non-economic formations into attractive horizontal development targets. (From the Granite Wash Playbook)

Oil and gas are far from exhausted in the Texas Panhandle, and one reservoir that is in the midst of a reconstruction is the Pennsylvanian Granite Wash. (From the Granite Wash Playbook)
