Construction of Bear Paw NG Facility on Hold

Details here.

Original story here. ONEOK had planned to start construction this month, but may have to wait until next spring, pending all "i's" are crossed and all "t's" are crossed regarding environmental and agricultural impact.

Thirteen (13) New Permits Today (Bakken, ND, USA); ERF Reports Two Great Wells on One Pad

Operators: Hess (3), CLR (2), Core 54, EOG, Encore, BR, North Plains, Newfield, Whiting, and, BEXP.

Fields: Manitour, Alger, Cedar Coulee, Corral Creek, Truax, Sanish, Cedar Hills, Banks, and two (2) wildcats.

The three Hess wells will be on a single pad in Manitou oil field, section 19-155N-94W.

Core 54: I had not heard of this operator before. New? When?

Core 54 is putting "Longshot 10-23 1" in as a wildcat in Stark County. This is another one near South Heart, where Whiting, Tracker, Fidelity, and Oil for America are putting in several new wells.

I reported one of these wells earlier this week, but today it's on the daily activity report:
