CLR's Hawkinson Wells Have Been Updated; Three Hawkinson Wells Cumulative Production Of 1.087 Million Bbls To Date

Updates

June 23, 2015: it should be noted that in addition to these eleven (11) Hawkinson wells on multi-well pads, there are two singletons. One was the first Hawkinson well; the most recent is a singleton still on confidential list.

Original Post

The CLR Hawkinson wells have been updated. There are eleven (11) Hawkinson wells on multi-well pads. Most of them had IPs in the typical CLR range of 400 to 900 bopd. Of interest:

• 24455, 2,323, CLR, Hawkinson 13-22H, Oakdale, middle Bakken, 29 stages, 2.7 million bls ceramic, t10/13; cum 135K 1/20; 21 days in December; 15 days in January, 2015;

I thought the IP might be a typographical error, but that is what is reported on the sundry form. Of course, that could be a typo, also, but that would be unusual.

In addition to these eleven wells, there was an older Hawkinson well spud in 2010:

• 18275, 1,020, CLR, Hawkinson 1-22H, Oakdale, t2/10; cum 722K 120; 31 days in both December (2014) and January (2015)

But that's not all. There are two more Hawkinson wells that were drilled from the other end of the spacing unit:

• 20208, 960, CLR, Hawkinson 2-27H, Oakdale, 4-section spacing; t9/11; cum 472K 1/20;
• 20211, 263, CLR, Hawkinson 3-27H, Oakdale, 4-section spacing, t9/11; cum 389K 1/20; went off line 10/19; back on line 1/20;

There are now fourteen (14) long laterals in that Hawkinson/Oakdale spacing unit.

A Note to the Granddaughters

Your grandmother is an incredible cook and chef. It's always great to have your aunt Laura come home. When Laura comes home, we always have fried chicken (awesome) and chocolate cake/chocolate frosting (awesome-er).

The best breakfast is Starbucks coffee and chocolate cake. Starbucks arrived late in my life; chocolate cake for breakfast began back in 1975, or thereabouts. It was another time, another place --a long time ago, in a galaxy far away.

I am still reading Franz Kafka's Amerika, about a chapter a day. As mentioned earlier, there was no particular reason to be reading it now, but every once in awhile I get back into a "kafka-phase" and I needed a small book to carry/read while standing in Christmas lines.

I always find it interesting how dots connect, how parallel lines cross (in a non-Euclidean universe), and it happened here, too. I was hoping to get the new Salinger biography for Christmas, and I did, and now I cannot put it down. It turns out that that Kafka "would become a critical writer to Salinger," p. 80. Who wudda guessed. So, during my mini-Kafka-phase I happen to read the biography of Salinger for whom Kafka played a major role in his literary life.

I thought I knew WWII fairly well, through biographies and histories, and novels such as Catch-22 and Slaughterhouse-Five, but the Salinger biography provides a deeper, more personal look at D-Day, the Battle of Hürtgen Forest, and the Battle of the Bulge. Salinger participated in all three, and was among the first to enter Kaufering Lager IV, and Buchenwald, two brutal concentration camps.

It was said that men who were in combat for 200 days in WWII went insane. Salinger checked himself into a civilian psychiatric hospital in Nuremburg while still on active duty (July, 1945), and was given an honorable discharge on November 22, 1945. He was sane enough to know that he did not want to have a mental health diagnosis as the reason for his military discharge.

It's an incredibly good biography. It's a different format than typical biographies which may dismay many folks, and it lacks an index.
