Why I love to blog and never get tired of the Bakken. I'm always surprised: I thought this was going to simply be a "same-old, same-old" post. And then, surprise, surprise. In addition to a "record" (or "near-record) IP being reported, look at this (down below): an existing well was re-fracked at the same time the DUC was completed. And it was a Marathon well. Marathon took the lead in a re-frack program and it looks they are trying something different. Wow, I simply love it. It seems every operator is "bringing something different to the Bakken table."
*************************************The DUC
Reported today, this DUC:That's a huge IP for oil; 6,278. It may be a record IP for crude oil alone (see below). For BOE, is it a record?
- 32888, 6,278, MRO, Forsman USA 44-22H, Antelope, Sanish, 45 stages; 15 million lbs, t12/17; cum --
So, nope it's not a record but it's certainly very close. Note: I have not captured every IP of every well in the Bakken so I may have missed the record well, but does it really matter? Whether this well set a record or not, it's a huge well. See graphic below for the location of this well.
- IP oil: 6,278 (oil only; this may be a Bakken record)
- IP mcf: 6,989 = 1,164 boe
- IP total boe: 7,442 boepd
**********************************
In fact, according to the company, it did set a record for the Bakken: it set the 30-day IP record for a Bakken well according to its operator, MRO, in its 4Q17 earnings call, slide 15 of 32.
The production data:
| Pool | Date | Days | BBLS Oil | Runs | BBLS Water | MCF Prod | MCF Sold | Vent/Flare |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SANISH | 12-2017 | 31 | 80868 | 79866 | 12403 | 102879 | 13858 | 80117 |
- 30 days oil: 78,259 bbls = 2,608/day for 30 days
- 30 days mcf: 99,560 mcf = 16,593 boe
- 30-day IP total boe: 94,852 boe
Disclaimer: I often make simple arithmetic errors. In addition, I did this quickly; have not rechecked the numbers. If this is important to you, go to the source.
