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
