Sometime ago the Birdbear formation was getting a bit of press. Today, the only Birdbear well I recall, Marathon's Mylo Wolding 14-11, reported an IP of 39 bopd.
On the daily activity report, the well is reported as producing from the Bakken pool, but the well was advertised as a Birdbear well, at least when I originally recorded the data. It does not have the typical "H" designation suggesting it was not fracked. The very low IP is not consistent with a typical Bakken well. The Birdbear is immediately below the Three Forks which, in turn, is immediately below the Bakken formations (upper, middle and lower).
Updates
Update, November 3, 2010: see first comment below. Apparently this was a vertical test well that finishes in the Birdbear. Their intention is to test from Lodgepole to Three Forks and possibly produce and test for 90 days up to 3 layers depending on the data they receive from their tests. The article also mentions that they have another well like this elsewhere. For newbies: by law, all core data or the core itself (I forget which) must be sent to the state for archiving and study.
