Update On A Well That BR Re-Entered; Drilled New Lateral; Jumps From 800 Bbls/Month To 20,000 Bbls/Month -- November 23, 2016

This well has "repercussions" for the entire Bakken. 

See this original note at this post.

From an earlier post:

From an October 28, 2015, posting, with updates:

A Burlington Resources well was permitted for re-entry:

• 20336, re-entry/1,162, BR, Sun Notch 43-32H-R/Sun Notch 43-32H, Sand Creek, McKenzie County, 20 stages, 2.1 million lbs; target zone, 20-feet; ; t9/11; cum 41K 2/16;

Comments:   

• I track the Sand Creek oil field here;  
• of interest, this well, #20336, was the very first permit I posted following the original post, back in 2011
• note: this well is still listed as having no pump; on "F" status 
• note: this well's status is now LOC;
• there is nothing in the file report that suggests there was any specific problem with drilling or fracking and yet this is a very, very poor well
• it was originally fracked with 20 stages; 2.1 million lbs proppant
• I assume they are going back into re-frack, possibly target a different zone, but I don't think a permit is needed for simple "re-working" (although I don't know)

November 23, 2016: It looks like the well has been successfully re-entered and a second lateral has been drilled. Note the "revised IP":

• 20336, re-entry/1,162, BR, Sun Notch 43-32H-R/Sun Notch 43-32H, Sand Creek, McKenzie County, 20 stages, 2.1 million lbs; target zone, 20-feet; t9/11; cum 126K 11/16; the second lateral was fracked with 32 stages, 4.25 million lbs; tested 5/20/16, with a "revised" IP of 2,204 bbls.

Note: not on a pump yet. 

Now, look at the production from this well. Compare monthly production in 5/15 (less than a thousand bbls) to production after the new lateral drilled, 7/16 (20,000 bbls), and, of course, also note the amount of natural gas (MCF) which also adds significantly to boe:
