Slow Day -- Only Four (4) New Permits -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

As a reminder: "we" hit a new record yesterday  -- 201 active drilling rigs in North Dakota. The previous record was set ... drum roll ... the day before, or the previous business day, I guess, at 200. 

Daily activity report, August 29, 2011 --

Operators: Denbury Onshore (3), and OXY USA.

Fields: Murphy Creek, Vanville, and one wildcat.

OXY USA had the wildcat; Denbury has a two-well pad in Murphy Creek.

In addition, the state reported 15 more wells that were either "plugged or producing." In the current boom, there are "no" dry holes, so one can assume all 15 of these wells are producing; data will be released once they are off the confidential list and have been completed. 

************************

Of the six wells that came off the confidential list, two were not yet completed, so that was a better ratio than usual:
MRO has consistently been reporting better wells in the past six months, as I have posted before.

And recently I noted that the Banks oil field looks exciting with the Berquist twins.
