Wells on Confidential List -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

We're starting to see a significant increase in number of wells on the confidential list. One month ago, I had 1,115 such wells. Today, Rory writes to tell me that there are 1,154 wells on the confidential list.

Those with more than 20:

• Continental Resources: 155
• EOG; 98
• XTO: 66
• MRO: 52
• BEXP: 51
• Slawson: 49
• Petro-Hunt: 45
• Whiting: 43
• Newfield: 41
• Burlington Resources: 40
• Encore: 37
• Oasis: 26
• American Oil: 24
• Tracker: 24
• Hess: 23
• KOG: 23
• Zenergy: 23
• Samson: 22
• Zavanna: 21
• Hunt: 20
• Sagebrush: 20

Comment: it's interesting to me that Anschutz and QEP don't break the "20" list.
