* RedOrbit.com has this report for us... Will the Haynesville Shale, potentially one of the largest natural gas finds in Louisiana's history, turn out to be a boon - or a boondoggle? ... Don Briggs, president of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association, says it's too soon to tell. But in the past two years, Oklahoma- based Chesapeake Energy Corp. has quietly leased 200,000 acres in live northwest Louisiana parishes atop what has been called the Haynesville Shale formation... Chesapeake, the nation's third-largest producer of natural gas, plans to lease as much as 500,000 acres in an area described as potentially the largest natural gas find in the company's 19-year history. If Chesapeake's data is proven correct, the current acreage could ultimately yield 7.5 trillion cubic feet of gas; that increases to 20 trillion cubic feet if the half-million-acre goal is reached... Smaller competitors - Petrohawk Energy Corp., Winchester Energy Co., Goodrich Petroleum, Encana, Questar, Camterra, Fossil Operating, and Shell Western Goodrich Petroleum - all have leases, too..
