Wells Coming Off The Confidential List Friday

Friday will be a big day. The March jobs report will be out. The consensus: 200,000 new jobs created, but folks are whispering that maybe only 150,000 new jobs were created. The unemployment rate is expected to be unchanged at the much-disbelieved 7.7%. [Update: the numbers were horrendous.]

First some very sad news. It was reported that Roger Ebert passed away Thursday. I didn't get to see him often on television (we were overseas much of that time), but I always enjoyed his reviews. Wow, another legend. Only 70 years old. To a 30-year-old, that might seem "old," but to those of us in our 60's, that's not that far away. I have no idea what DVD featuring a Robert Ebert commentary would be the best, but if you haven't listened to the Robert Ebert commentary on Casablanca, you need to  -- ASAP. I never tire of watching it. I watch it once or twice a year. Yes, it's that good.

Okay, the wells coming off the confidential list today. We start with the much-talked-about, seldom-seen OXY USA wells:
  • 22997, TA, OXY USA, Thunderbird 1-15-22H-141-94, wildcat, as far south in Dunn County as you can get; about two miles south of Murphy Creek; south end of Murphy Creek with minimal activity; 15-141-94 with no activity except for this one OXY USA well; temporary abandoned while OXY decides what to do with it; Three Forks target; it looks like it was going to be a long lateral (drilled to depth, it appears) and to be fracked with 21 stages; no geologist's report at NDIC yet. This well is on the southeast fringe of the Bakken; Three Forks is more likely to be found here.
  • 23290, 904, Hess, BB-Olson 150-95-0817H-3, Blue Buttes, t3/13; cum 6K 2/13;
  • 23489, 26, Surge, Scandia C SENE 34 00 SENW 35H, Souris, Spearfish/Madison, t12/12; cum 5K 2/13;
