Big Bend Update

Updates

March 16, 2014: four rigs actively drilling in the Big Bend.

June 8, 2012: IPs and production updated this date going back to permits issued in 2009. Some observations: 
  • there are only a handful of wells that are even two years old so far, and this was one of the first fields to be developed in the Bakken
  • look at the cumulative production of these wells; huge; they will reach payback within two years or so; and then keep producing for another 30 years
  • look at how much work yet needs to be done; most of the permits issued in 2011 are still on confidential list
  • when you look at Big Bend on the NDIC GIS map server, note that the field -- this most productive field -- averages only one (1) per spacing unit. This field will eventually see a minimum of four, maybe six, maybe eights wells per spacing unit
April 10, 2010:  Slawson has a rig on site, 18792, Jericho 2-5H-TF  -- on same pad as two producing wells, Jericho 1-5H and Coyote 1-32H.  Slawson has another rig on site for 18312, Whirlwind 1-31H.

March 9, 2010: Slawson and NOG will drill Jericho 2-5H-TF below the Jericho 1-5H to see if the two formations are separate.

Original Post

The Big Bend field may be a small field, but it's an exciting field, especially for Slawson.

The field is only 32 sections, nestled inside a loop of the Missouri, and entirely inside the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, on the north side of the  river. At the north end is New Town, a town that has an interesting history as any.

The Big Bend is a favorite of mine. My dad loved to take me to New Town every time I came home. It was a beautiful drive, especially at sunset. I will always have good memories. Maybe more memories later.

But for now, here's what is going on in Big Bend: four producing wells, 10 wells on the confidential list, and one well being drilled.

I consider it a "Slawson field, but Marathon has a couple of wells in this field, but that's about it.

The first thing one notices when visiting this small field is that the producers seem to be pairing up wells, offsetting two wells 100 feet from each other.

18865, Silencer 1-29H, 1,026, t12/10; cum 172K 11/12;

Of all producers, Slawson has the best names for their wells.
