Four producers were abandoned; most were "old"; this was a more recent one:

"This well is uneconomic and has no uphole or leasehold utility." "The Bogner 13-20H is currently down due to a suspected tubing leak and is uneconomic to repair." This was a Three Forks well, stimulated with one stage on 2/16/12, and 4 stages on 5/7/12 with a total of less than one million lbs proppant (about 800,000 lbs).
Trivia: among the six producing wells that were completed, five were SM Energy wells; all of them have names associated with the NFL, although one of them is a bit out of the ordinary if it was indeed named for an NFL personality.

    Your blog was just linked over at the 'Peak Oil' site.
    I gotta warn ya, the readership over there tends to be highly emotional regarding their contrary (to yours - and mine) view of things.
    Incoming!

    1. 1. For those interested, the link: http://peakoil.com/production/guess-on-how-long-bakken-oil-will-be-pumped/comment-page-1#comment-148245.

      2. I've talked about my experience with "Peak Oil" in very, very early posts. Back in the early 70's, I truly thought life as we knew it was over -- with huge shortfall in crude oil. Who would have thought that in one's lifetime things have changed so much.

      3. The "Bakken" is incredibly fascinating. It never ceases to amaze me. Just when I'm about to quit blogging because it seems "boring," something in the Bakken comes along to surprise me.

      Thank you for taking time to write.

      Interesting that you made the comment regarding 'boring'.
      Things have gotten a bit 'Ground Hog Day(ish) with the Bakken as the incredibly adept readjustment to transient $30 ATW pricing seemed to be effected without breaking stride (excepting, of course, the dramatic and - hopefully brief - downsizing of the workforce).
      No, Mr. Oksol, the exciting times are still ahead as these amazing people continue to innovate, expand, and bring to full fruition the unique resource that is the Bakken.
      I, as always, thank you for your time and effort.

    3. Yes, the two data points I am most interested in when the Director's Cut comes out this week:

      1. The price NDIC records for Bakken (vs WTI).
      2. The "fracklog": the number of wells waiting to be fracked.
