E&Ps active in the San Juan Basin’s Mancos Shale think it has real potential, but acknowledge that regional natural gas prices would have to be higher to justify the investment. What Mancos producers need, they say, is better access to premium markets like Arizona — now in the midst of a data center and gas-fired power boom — and northwestern Mexico, where new LNG export capacity is coming online. To help make that possible, Tallgrass Energy has been pursuing the development of a large-diameter, Arizona-bound pipeline out of the San Juan. In today’s RBN blog, we continue our look at the Mancos Shale, its potential growth, and Tallgrass’s plan.
High-cycle salt cavern storage in Southeast Texas, strategically located near major interstate and intrastate pipelines to provide firm storage service connecting Permian supply with LNG, power generation, utility, industrial, and Gulf Coast end-use markets.

As we said in Part 1, gas production in the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico and southwestern Colorado has experienced a lot of ups and downs over the past 100-plus years. In recent decades, the production focus has been on coalbed methane, but those volumes have been gradually declining and a small cadre of E&Ps have turned their attention to the Mancos Shale (medium-gray layer in Figure 1 below), a thick marine shale formation within the basin located several thousand feet below ground level.

About the song
“Here You Come Again” was written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil and appears as the first song on side one of Dolly Parton’s 19th studio album of the same name. Parton, who wrote most of her own songs, was looking for a song to broaden her appeal to the pop market. Producer Gary Klein brought her the song, and she insisted on adding steel guitar on the recording for it to appeal to her loyal country audience. Released as a single in September 1977, it went to #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart, making it her first significant pop crossover hit. It has been certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Personnel on the record were: Dolly Parton (lead, backing vocals), Al Perkins (pedal steel guitar), Dean Parks (lead guitar), David Foster (keyboards), David Hungate (bass), Ed Greene (drums), Jim Keltner (percussion), Jan Grassman, Myrna Matthews, Marti McCall, Zedrick Turnbough (backing vocals), and Harry Bluestone (string arrangements and orchestration).
The album Here You Come Again was recorded in June through August 1977 at Sound Lab in Los Angeles and produced by Gary Klein. Released in October 1977, it went to #1 on the Billboard Top Country, and #20 on the Billboard 200 Albums charts. It has been certified Platinum by the RIAA. Four singles were released from the LP.
Dolly Parton was an American singer, songwriter, musician, actress, philanthropist, and businesswoman. She began singing as a child, appearing on local radio and television programs in Eastern Tennessee. After moving to Nashville at 18, she signed her first record deal with Monument Records in 1964, which released her first single, “What Do You Think About Love,” in November 1964. She signed a publishing deal with Combine Publishing in February 1965 and began writing songs for other artists in addition to herself. She released 49 studio albums, nine live albums, six soundtrack albums, 222 compilation albums, and 199 singles and has sold more than 100 million records worldwide. Parton has won a Primetime Emmy Award, an American Music Award, four Billboard Awards, 10 CMA Awards, two Library of Congress Awards, and a MusicCares Person of the Year Award. She is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Gospel Music Hall of Fame and Grammy Hall of Fame, and has received Kennedy Center Honors. Parton was known for her charitable efforts, primarily through her Dollywood Foundation. Her literary program, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, provides free books to children and has sent more than 100 million books for free so far. Parton starred in eight motion pictures, including the hit “9 to 5,” as well as numerous television shows, including The Porter Wagoner Show, which ran from 1967 to 1974. We at Novi Labs are saddened by the death of Dolly Parton, who recently passed away in Nashville at the age of 80. We send our condolences to her family, friends, and fans.
