  1. Don't forget that some wells on the confidential list have not even been spudded yet. Take Brigham's Mark 4-9TFH for example.

    1. Yes, you are correct. The number of wells/permits on the confidential list is simply one data point.

      I believe the recent record for number of wells coming off the confidential list was 181, or thereabouts, back in November, 2012.
