Update on EOG Liberty LR 17-11H; Longest (?) TD in the Bakken -- The Bakken, North Dakota, USA

I posted this some time ago (October 29, 2011):
EOG hits total depth with longest horizontal in the Bakken

Based on data at NDIC, EOG should have reached TD for the longest horizontal to date in the Bakken by now: #20037, Liberty LR 17-11H, 25,000 feet with extended long lateral under the river. 25,000 / 5,280 =  4.74 miles.  Vertical is about 10,000 feet, so the horizontal is about 15,000 feet, just under 3 miles.
Update: 790, s1/11; t6/11; cum 92K 11/11; 16K/month; on a pump

If this is not the longest/deepest horizontal in the Bakken, it certainly must be in the top five.

Completion: 31 stages; 5.8 million pounds sand.

Depths:
  • Lodge Pole: 9,172
  • 3rd Shale Marker: 9,541
  • False Bakken: 9,563
  • Scallion: 9,572
  • Upper Bakken Shale: 9,594
  • Middle Bakken: 9,621
