Almost 1,200 Wells on the Confidential List -- North Dakota, USA
The number of wells on the North Dakota NDIC confidential list has increased to 1,181 as of today, compared to 1,154 about a month ago. I haven't tracked the number of wells on this list very precisely, but I assume this is a record.
At least 108 wells will be coming off the confidential list in December; this is up from 99 in November. Looking ahead to next year, right now there are about 91 wells that will come off the confidential list in April, 2011.
