I'm being told that "Samson made an annoucement this evening on the Gary 1-24H well (file # 18824) in the Stockyard Creek field. It came in at about 1,600 boepd. And I believe about 2 MMCF per day." I have not seen the "official statement" yet.
I have no mineral rights, and I know the "work" is called "work" for a reason, but I bet the roughnecks drilling this well, and the engineer on site, and the site manager, and everyone else involved, must just have a great feeling when a well comes in. I would think even on the worse North Dakota winter night (and we're not there yet by any means), the workers cheer when a well comes in. Maybe I'm wrong. But I like to think that no one takes all their work for granted.
Congratulations to those involved with Gary 1-24H.
If you want to see it, the well is about 315 feet -- yup, feet -- south of State Highway 1604, about 10 miles east of Williston. I assume there's a flare. You will see some wonderful scenery in the rolling hills; watch out for lights coming over the hill!

I've posted this before, but I felt in the mood to post it again and watch it again. For all the truck drivers:

By the way, this was the story in Rigzone, regarding Gary 1-24H, back in June, 2010:
Samson O&G updated its prior reports on the exceptional growth in oil production and reserves that it has achieved in the Williston Basin. Having just drilled its third Middle Bakken well (Gary #1-24H), which followed the previously drilled Leonard #1-23H, and Gene #1-22H wells, Samson announced that the next well in the sequence will be the Rodney #1-14H.
As a result of the drilling and fracture stimulation of this sequence of wells, Samson expects to be producing a net 6,000 barrels of oil equivalent a month as at December 2010. The projected December 2010 production rate is based on the data gathered from the Gene 1-22H well projected forward using conservative decline curve methodology. The projection assumes that the other wells making up the sequence perform like the Gene 1-22H well and are drilled and stimulated in a timely manner.
Rodney 1-14H is right across the road from Gary 1-24H, on the north side of the road.
