Oasis Reports a Nice Well Northwest of Williston

It looks like Oasis is reporting a nice well:

• 18567, 1,835, Oasis, Njos Federal 5602 11-13H, Wildcat (156-102) 

In addition, Oasis has reported that the sister well on the same pad is plugged or producing.

• 18418, DRL, Sandaker 5602 11-13H

These wells are about ten (10) miles north of the BEXP Olson wells which were among the first really great wells in this area. 

From the nomenclature for an Oasis well it is easy to determine where the well is located: the first four digits, in this case "5602" refers to T156N-102W. The last one/two numbers preceding the "H" (in most cases) is the section number. 

I believe Oasis has a fair amount of leased acreage in this area. These are the permits that Oasis has in the local area of this most recent well northwest of Williston (as of July 23, 2010):

• 18623, Odin Jorgenson 5502 44-8H, Wildcat
• 18799, Stowers 5502 43-8H, Squires
• 18801, Contreras 5502 42-7H, Squires
• 18802, Vuki 5502 42-7H, Squires
• 18817, Kjos 5502 44-24H, Squires
• Andre 5501 13-4H, Missouri Ridge
• 19046, McFarland 5502 44-12H, Squires
• 19097, Merritt 5693 11-24H, Alger

• 19307, Devon 5601 12-17H, Wildcat
• 19308, Glover 5601 12-17H, Wildcat

These permits, in the same general area, have been canceled (no big deal: simply moved across the section line from section 8 to section 17 in the same township, same oil field, which by the way, has a rig on site):

• 18914, Ellis 5602 42-8H, Bull Butte
• 18915, Somerset 5602 42-8H, Bull Butte
