But this one slide from Whiting's current (September, 2010) presentation speaks volumes. This is slide 7 of the presentation (or slide 8 on Adobe download), Whiting's oil production (if I am interpreting the slide correctly):
- From Oklahoma for the entire calendar year 2008: 1.5 million barrels
- From Texas for the entire calendar year 2009: 3.6 million barrels
- From North Dakota for one month, August, 2010: 1.3 million barrels
The reason I bring this up is because of the story in the Dickinson Press today about oil activity around Dickinson. Note the quote in the story: " ... within the last few weeks, most noticeably after Whiting Oil and Gas Corp. announced its recent success and future plans, activity has exploded."
Future plans:
- CAPEX will double in 2010 over 2009: $830 million vs $490 million (slide 19).
- Whiting will participate in 52 net wells in the Sanish in 2010 (90 Whiting-operated wells) (slide 22).
- Emphasis on the Lewis and Clark Prospect, near Dickinson (slide 36).
Reminder to investors: WLL has stated that their production goals for third quarter 2010 will be impacted by the Enbridge pipeline shutdown, but WLL said it should meet its full year goals.
