1,176 Wells On the Confidential List -- North Dakota, USA

Actually, 1,176 permits are on confidential field. Not all of these permits have been drilled and/or completed.

Eighty (80) wells will come off confidential list this month (January, 2010); 90 will come off the confidential list in February; and, 122 wells will come off the list in March.

And, "we" are back up to 163 active rigs.

All 22 of Continental Resources' rigs are active. BEXP is down one rig at the moment; BEXP with six active rigs. Both of KOG's rigs are active. But it's a snapshot in time, and tomorrow the  numbers could change.
