February 2, 2015: MDU sells some prime real estate in the Alger to Lime Rock Resources; the sale occurred during the worst possible time for MDU -- prices were slumping; MDU cancels five permits and Lime Rock Resources is reporting some incredible wells; MDU has repeatedly missed on the Bakken, beginning with the sale of the Cottonwood Field to Oasis, making Oasis what it is today
April 27, 2012: another great BEXP well --
- 21358, 3,863, BEXP, Clifford Bakke 26-35 2H, Mountrail, Alger
March 20, 2012: more on that 12-well, $100 million pad.
March 20, 2012: Filloon hears a rumor that a six-well pad in the Alger will end up being a $100 million 12-wellpad. Currently, permits 21129 through 21134.
February 28, 2012: example of how busy the Alger field is right now!
December 28, 2011: BEXP reports three outstanding wells on a 4-well pad; the fourth well is still confidential.
November 23, 2011: BEXP permits for a 5-well pad in the Alger. This may be the first 5-well pad in the Bakken.
January 12, 2011: the daily activity report -- #19057, BEXP, Domaskin 30-31 1H, with an IP of 4,106.
May 26, 2010: BEXP announced two great wells today. One of them was in the Alger field: Jack Cvancara 19-18 1H, just one mile from BEXP's Sorenson 29-32 1H (see paragraph below). "Jack" has the second highest IP, 5,035, for a Bakken well in the Williston Basin (to date), second only to his sister well, the Sorenson. The Alger field continues to surprise, continues to excite.
April 5, 2010: BEXP announces record initial flow -- 5,133 boepd for the Sorenson 29-32 1H, NWNW 29-155-92. My focus on individual oil fields began with the Alger when I anticipated excitement in this field; it appears that this excitement was well placed.
March 19, 2009: BEXP canceled a couple of permits today, both in the Alger field, one in section 11 and one in section 5, both T155-N-92W. I don't know anything more than that. Sometimes it means nothing more than submitting a new permit for the same acreage based on new information.

ALGER FIELD
I am spotlighting various oil fields in the Williston Oil Basin, a project I started in early 2010. I selected Alger Field as one of the first fields to spotlight because of its surprises.
Unbeknowst to me at the time I selected the Alger Field to spotlight was the bidding war for some acreage in the Alger. Click here for the thread: note that an entity called the Irish Oil and Gas Company has just gained control of 120 acres in the Alger Field for $7,300/acre which works out to $4.7 million/section. The 120 acres are in sections 11, 12 and 13, T155N-92W, where there are already two wells on confidential status, #18647, Fidelity, Anderson 11-13H; and #17392, BEXP, Anderson 1-11H. Quite a surprise. If this thread is accurate, this is quite incredible, perhaps the most incredible thing that has happened in the history of investing in the Bakken.] [UPDATE: March 19, 2010: the BEXP Anderson 1-11H permit (#17392) was canceled, as was BEXP permit #17353, Olson 5-6 1H, both in the Alger.]
The Alger Field is in Mountrail County, the same county where the prolific Sanish and Parshall fields are located. It is located northwest of and not too far away from those two fields. In fact, the southeast corner of the Alger borders the Sanish. The southwest corner of the Alger borders Robinson Lake. The Alger Field, with 104 sections is a relatively small field; it is a rectangular field just west of Stanley, ND. The town of Ross, ND, is located in the northeast sector of the Alger Field.
It is one of my favorite fields for two reasons: a) it is full of surprises -- there have been some good wells and there's a lot of activity; and, b) I traveled (railroad, hitchhiking, driving) that area of North Dakota too many times to count -- US Highway 85 goes right through the middle of that field -- through Ross, and then through Stanley -- near the center of activity in the Bakken. Lots of great memories. All those years of driving through Ross -- I never had any idea how active this area would become.
It appears the acreage in the Alger is controlled by BEXP, Hess, and EOG, causing for some interesting head-on-head comparisons.
The current producing wells are a mixture of short laterals and long laterals.
