  1. This is interesting that a new permit is being issued for the Strandahl Field. This area has seen nearly no drilling activity and this permit location may be the furtherest West that one has been issued in Williams County. I look for this Strandahl Field to see increased activity over the next few months and this entire ND/MT border area, which has been nearly untouched, to become extremely active over the next few months.

  2. I agree with you. I was so impressed with what is going on in that small field, I posted a stand-alone update on Strandahl field just two weeks ago:

    It's going to be a nice field. Thank you for taking the time to write.
