AADE Lafayette Chapter members,

I hope my message finds you well. First and foremost, we want to extend our deep

gratitude to all military veterans and their families. Thank you for your selfless service. We will always remember the sacrifices that were carried out to ensure this country's freedom on your behalf. Let us endure in praying for continual protection over our brave men and women as they resume their call to duty.

World.” Andy Cuthbert will educate us

on the requirements used to successfully complete the relief well plan.

Since the wake-up call that was Macondo, the spotlight on preparation of relief well planning, in the unlikely but ever present risk of loss of well control, has become more acute. It is essential that all stakeholders understand what is required, from the point of view of additional resources and the logistical necessities, the information the well control companies require in order to complete the relief well plan, including casing requirements and dynamic kill rates, and all in the context of a thorough risk analysis. What are the requirements and how does the relief well home in on the target well, how and what will be needed to perform a successful kill? This discourse will touch on wellbore integrity and will not delve into compliance or

procedure but concentrate on the necessity to include well control contingencies at the very earliest stages of the drilling plan.

Well fires have been around almost as long as wells. Whether started by an act of nature, accidently during drilling, or deliberately (like the well fires in Kuwait that were started by Saddam Hussein’s forces during the Persian Gulf War), well fires have two things in common – they are dangerous, and the wells contain a fuel source to feed them. Because of the amount of fuel available, a well fire can burn for months, and generate temperatures in excess of 2,000 degrees.

Two “Well Control” icons are Myron M. Kinley and Paul N. Adair, better known as “Red” for the color of his hair. As fate would have it these two gentlemen would meet when Kinley arrived on a well location

to put out a fire and the only volunteer to answer the call was Adair.

The two worked on the fire for two days before extinguishing it. Kinley then began using Adair on well fire jobs until Adair enlisted in the Army, where he disarmed unexploded shells in Japan near the end of World War II. After his tour of duty was over, Adair returned to his job at the M.M. Kinley Company.

While working for Kinley, Adair met and worked with Asger “Boots” Hansen and Ed “Coots” Matthews, two other military veterans of World War II who were about as fearless as he was. In the late 1950s, Adair left Kinley and formed the Red Adair Company, Inc.,

Fighting well fires requires the right techniques, as well as the right equipment. But most of all, fighting well fires requires the right people.

Having graduated from the University of London with a BSc (Honors) Geology in 1981, Cuthbert went on to complete an MPhil in Geology before joining the oil industry in 1984.

He has 29 years of oilfield experience including 10 years with Schlumberger and 19 years with Halliburton. Among his years spent with Halliburton, Cuthbert has been involved in projects of ever-increasing complexity involving the introduction and coordination of new drilling and multilateral technology.

His time spent as project

coordinator for the BG Group in Tunisia in 1995 was succeeded by project management in Norway in a production sharing project and on the Talisman Gyda project in 2004. A move to Malaysia in 2006 saw Cuthbert leave project management to take up a regional management position for operations in Southeast Asia, China, the Indian sub-continent and Australasia. A year after moving to Houston in 2009, he resumed his role in Halliburton project management and has participated in projects in the United States, Tanzania, Singapore, India and most recently in Iraq.

He has written and co-authored drilling industry technical papers for the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) and International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) on both Directional Drilling and Multilateral Technology, published papers in project management journals and given presentations to the global SPE community.

His main hobby is cycling and he is an International Rugby Board (IRB) Level II referee, currently living in Houston with his wife and two children.

This month's featured speaker will be Andy Cuthbert of Boots & Coots who will discuss Relief Well Planning in the

Post-Macondo World at 11:30 a.m. Nov. 18 at the Petroleum Club.

CSX and GE to Use Natural Gas to Fuel Locomotives

CSX Corp. and a division of General Electric announced Wednesday they will explore technology that would allow locomotives to run on liquefied natural gas, an agreement the companies say could revolutionize the railroad industry.

Jacksonville-based CSX says it will work with GE Transportation over the coming months on a test plan to outfit some diesel-powered locomotives with a kit that will give them the capability to also run on liquefied natural gas — an increasingly popular fuel because of its relatively low cost and lower emissions.

“LNG technology has the potential to offer one of the most significant developments in railroading since the transition from steam to diesel in the 1950s,” said Oscar Munoz, executive vice president and CEO of CSX, in a statement. “That change took many years to complete and began with a lot of unknowns, and this one is no different.”

Natural gas-powered trains can travel greater distances with fewer stops for refueling, the companies said, in addition to the economic and environmental benefits compared with traditional diesel.

The companies are also exploring LNG technology for other classes of trains and working with government agencies “to ensure safety, realize environmental and other benefits and advance LNG deployment,” according to a joint release from CSX and GE.

Natural Gas Drops on Outlook for Ample Heating-Fuel Supplies

Natural gas futures dropped from a two-week high in New York amid speculation that a government report tomorrow will show a U.S. inventory gain that’s above average for this time of year.

Gas slid 1.4 percent as the Energy Information Administration may say stockpiles expanded by 22 billion cubic feet last week, based on the median of 18 analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Estimates ranged from gains of 2 billion to 33 billion. The

five-year average injection for the week is 19 billion. Supplies fell 12 billion a year earlier.

“The concern is that we still have ample supplies to meet this upcoming heating demand,” said Teri Viswanath, director of commodities strategy at BNP Paribas SA in New York. “That, combined with expectations of continued production growth, is making investors think twice about running this up.”

Natural gas for December delivery fell 5.1 cents to settle at $3.566 per million British thermal units on the New York Mercantile Exchange, breaking a six-day streak of gains. Prices yesterday rose to $3.617, the highest closing price since Oct. 30. Trading volume was 4.5 percent below the 100-day average at 2:47 p.m. Prices have climbed 6.4 percent this year.

Production in the Marcellus shale deposit in the Northeast may climb 3.3 percent in December to 12.9 billion cubic feet a day from an estimated 12.5 billion in November, the EIA said yesterday in its monthly Drilling Productivity Report.

U.S. Oil Output Tops Imports for First Time Since 1995

In the decades-long fight for energy independence, the United States has scored a major symbolic victory.

In October, for the first time since February 1995, the U.S. produced more crude oil than it imported, the Energy Information Administration said this week.

EIA, the Energy Department’s nonpartisan statistical arm, said U.S. crude oil production averaged 7.7 million barrels per day in October while 7.6 million barrels per day were imported. In addition, EIA said total net petroleum imports, which includes products like gasoline and diesel, were at the lowest point since February 1991.

The news is the latest signal that the United States, thanks to new technology and a boom in unconventional oil production, is closer than ever to controlling its own energy destiny, an elusive goal sought by every president since Richard Nixon.

EIA first predicted in March that production would surpass imports.

By Don BriggsPresident, Louisiana Oil and Gas Association

Famed Industrialist and oil and gas tycoon, J. Paul Getty, once said, “If business is your profession, then you should make politics your business.”

On that note, Louisiana voters are facing multiple elections over the next year. The 5th U.S. congressional district is voting next month (November 16th) between two Republican candidates to see who will head to Washington D.C. to replace former Congressman Rodney Alexander. Louisiana Supreme Court District 2 will be electing a new member to the state bench in the Fall of 2014.

The mid-term elections for U.S. congressional races will also take place next Fall of 2014. And finally, the state of Louisiana will be electing a new U.S. senator within the next year.

What do these political races mean to our state and for the future of the Louisiana oil and gas industry? In

order for our state to become more business friendly than we currently are today, state and federal officials must be elected that represent the entire business community. An elected official is not pro-business if he only supports the health care industry, or just the auto manufacturing industry, or even just the oil and gas industry. A quality candidate supports the entire business community.

For example, with the current congressional race that will occur in a few weeks, voters must do his or her homework. Watching a political ad or mimicking your friend’s vote is not sufficient. The voters must understand the platform in which the candidate is running, and also what his or her track record displays.

One congressional candidate from the 5th District is a nine-year state senator and businessman. Therefore he understands what it takes to operate a business and also how to bring home the bacon for his senate district. The other candidate is a multi-business owner and therefore understands what is required of a pro-

business official. Again, what does this have to do

with the oil and gas industry? Everything. If we the people elect a candidate that does not understand oil and gas or does not have a favorable opinion or voting record for the oil and gas industry, then we should not elect this person as our representative.

The same train of thought goes for a Supreme Court race here in Louisiana. If this person has a record on the bench in his or her previous judicial district that is anti-oil and gas, or even more broadly, anti-business, then it is on the backs of the voters to know these details.

Supreme Court races are not the

only important races. Localized races matter too due to the fact that local judges often become district judges, and district judges often become Supreme Court judges.

It is prudent of the oil and gas industry, the state and national associations and businessmen and women to educate his or her current officials and potential elected officials. The industry needs pro-business and pro-oil and gas allies no matter the particular voting district. Again, Getty’s quote can be applied to our daily lives — “If business is your profession, then you should make politics your business.”
