American Energy Development Corp. provided an update on Michigan operations, and other industry news within the state. Dansville Prospect: Located in Ingham County, Southern Michigan, the Dansville Prospect contains 3 potential Niagaran reef formations. To date, two of the identified reef prospects have been drilled with the first well, Brown 2-12, on production and yielding cash-flow to AED. The second well, the Cremer 1-1, was cement plugged following geophysical logging for density, porosity and water saturation, in order to determine reservoir size, quality and deliverability. It has been determined that during drilling stage, the flank of the structure was encountered, with the presence of salt plugging in the drilled area of the formation. AED and its operating partner are currently evaluating completion and development opportunities for the well, which include sidetracking. Data from drilling the first two wells, along with AED's 12,300 acre database of high resolution 3-D seismic data, are being re-evaluated, with special focus on salt formations and properties for the prospective third well, the Bowen well. White-tail Prospect: Located on approximately 4,000 acres in Northern Michigan, the White-tail prospect is found in an area which contains over 110 oil fields with reserves larger than 1 million barrels, with the average size of these fields being approximately 2.4 million barrels recoverable. The largest reefs drilled in the area are the Chester 18A field, with 14 million barrels of recoverable oil, drilled by Royal Dutch Shell, and the Grant 13 field, which has approximately 47 billion cubic feet of recoverable natural gas. Michigan Activities: According to the USGS report on the basin, the recoverable reserves are in excess of 1.8 billion barrels of oil and 17 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. There are a total of 4,212 wells that have reported production from the Niagaran reefs in Michigan. These reefs have produced a total of 472 million barrels oil and 2.8 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Royal Dutch Shell has been a major player in the state having drilled and produced from over 490 wells. Players in Michigan include Devon Energy which has amassed 240,000 net acres, and according to the company has 1.54 billion BOE in unrisked resources. The company recently signed a $2.2 Billion Transaction with Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration & Production Corporation to drill and develop Devon's asset base. Other players in Michigan include Encana with 430,000 net acres, who drilled two horizontal wells in 2011, Chesapeake Energy with 450,000 acres, and the recently acquired Atlas Energy, owned by Chevron, with over 380,000 net acres.
