Random Update Of Five (5) Whiting Tarpon Federal Wells Still On The Confidential List -- March 18, 2015

Regular readers know the history of Whiting's Tarpon Federal wells. I track them here. In the process of looking something up for a reader, I came across the production numbers of the five Tarpon Federal wells that are still on the confidential list but have been completed and producing oil. Here they are:
  • 28496, drl->conf, Tarpon Federal 24-20-3RTF, Sand Creek, sundry form says "Middle Bakken, NOS;

  • 28494, drl->conf, Tarpon Federal 24-20-2RTF, Sand Creek, sundry form says "Middle Bakken," 30-stage, NOS, producing, strange production profile; 32K first month; 285 bbls second month:

12-2014420550

It is possible the low production in January, 2015, for these wells is due to the reason cited at this post. These wells come off the confidential list in mid-June / late July, but I expect we will see them come off sooner, in the "producing wells completed" segment of the daily activity report.

Reminder: this is a random update; I continue to track and update these wells at the link above.

  1. Could also be some of interference test, or a way for them to measure the effectiveness of the frac on the new offset wells they are finishing up

    1. Yes, absolutely. I think there is a lot yet to learn about the Bakken -- especially with all the multi-well pads.
