Scores Major Successes
In The SCOOP And STACK
By Al Pickett

Special Correspondent
Independent operators have been drilling in the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma for

decades, but several new unconventional resource plays are emerging with surprising

momentum. The names are as innovative as the science and engineering spurring
their development.

Continental Resources coined the term SCOOP to describe the South Central

Oklahoma Oil Province, a seven-county geographic region in which the Woodford has

been the primary target, but where multiple zones are economic, even at lower
commodity prices.

Newfield Exploration has identified a similar play west and northwest of Oklahoma

City, which the company calls STACK. It includes stacked pay involving the Woodford
and Meramec shales, among others, according to Gary Packer, chief operating officer.

The acronym STACK is both a geologic and geographic description, which stands for

Sooner Trend Anadarko Canadian Kingfisher, since the play is primarily in Canadian and
Kingfisher counties, Ok., in the Anadarko Basin, Packer notes.

Now, the Springer Shale, which lies above the SCOOP Woodford, has emerged as

yet another target in the string of Mid-Continent plays attracting a lot of attention.
