Longfellow Exploration Partners, Limited (LEP) is a Texas based oil and gas exploration company with significant development and exploration acreage positions centered around the giant and expanding Pinon Field (5.1 TCF EUR).  These properties strategically situated in the core of the prolific and rapidly developing West Texas Overthrust (WTO) Resource Play of the Val Verde/Permian/Delaware Basin system of West Texas.  LEP has assembled a team of WTO veterans that are adding significant value to the play.

LEP and affiliates approximate 100,000 gross acre land and working interest positions are concentrated under the Longfellow and West Ranches of Southern Pecos County, Texas.  Longfellow Ranch spans portions of the Pinon Field and is centered in the heart of this West Texas Overthrust (WTO) play that has been the focal point of much of the State’s natural gas drilling and production activity of late.   (There are currently in excess of 30 rigs drilling this field area with  over 500 wells drilled to date  (with some 260 wells to be drilled in 2008).)

LEP team members along with partners including SandRidge Energy, Inc. (formerly Riata Energy, Inc.), www.sandridgeenergy.com, have since 2003 undertaken development of the Longfellow Ranch and the prolific Pinon Field with cumulative gas production to date of over 300 BCF.  Other giant fields nearby Longfellow include Puckett, Grey Ranch, Elsinore, Thistle, Brown-Bassett, Pakenham, and Gomez Field.  Gas is transported through a network of area pipelines for sale at market prices.
