Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious or More Simply: Super-Frack

Three times in the past 72 hours I have come across the term "super-frack" or references to the same.

The first time I heard the phrase, "super-frack," was in the 2010 Enercom NOG presentation. The CEO mentioned a 42-stage frack, recently completed.

That reminded me of my recent posting of a 40-stage frack just now being reported.

And, then, of course, that took me back to the very first time that knowledgeable sources talked about super-fracks. Or at least the first time I posted a reference to super-fracks.

Just a reminder: Helmerich and Payne is moving two high performance rigs into the Bakken.

Just saying.

I personally can't stand this clip (any more) but I could not resist:

Update, September 9, 2010: BEXP announces two wells that will be 38-stage fracks -- the Wright 44-33 1-H (currently fracking); and, Clifford Bakke, to be fracked in October. These wells directly offset BEXP's two 5,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day IP wells.
