Fields: Simon Butte (first time in a very long time), Glass Bluff, Midway, Siverston, Grinnell, Van Hook and Mandaree. No wildcats.
Biggest surprise: no new permit for Whiting in Stark County or the Sanish oil field.
Thirteen (13) wells released from confidential status. Two very interesting ones which will get stand-alone posts:
- One appears to be an old Madison well that was re-drilled into the Bakken; now reporting an IP of 1,704; by Oasis
- The other was not on the NDIC daily activity report but posted elsewhere with an IP of nearly 5,000 bbl of oil (probably a 24-hour flowback figure); current production at 77 days is running at 550 bbls/day
Your 5,000 bbl IP was actually 993 bbl in a 24 hr test. The 5,000 was over 120hrs according to the well file...
ReplyDeleteJust another mediocre well in the Bakken, I guess. It explains a)why I was the only one excited about this report; and, b) why there was no press release.
ReplyDeleteOh, well.
Thank you for sharing. Seriously, I always appreciate a little sanity to counter my exuberance.
