OREANDA-NEWS. The Eagle Ford continues to be EOG's largest high return play. During 2015, the company expanded the use of high density completions to 95 percent of the Eagle Ford wells planned for the year. Enabled by high density completions and proprietary targeting technology, EOG is actively testing tighter well spacing in the lower Eagle Ford with stacked-staggered "W" patterns.

Additionally, an efficient drilling program increased the amount of acreage held by production to 91 percent of EOG's 561,000 net acres in the Eagle Ford oil window. In Gonzales County, EOG completed the Phoenix Unit #4H and #5H with average initial production rates per well of 3,815 Bopd, 415 Bpd of NGLs and 2.8 MMcfd of natural gas.

In McMullen County, EOG completed the Naylor Jones Unit 26 #1H and #2H in a two-well pattern with average initial production rates per well of 2,650 Bopd with 150 Bpd of NGLs and 1.0 MMcfd of natural gas.
