Encore and QEP With Two (2) Nice Wells -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Coming off the confidential list today:

• 19137, 2,928, Encore, Franchuk 34-19NWH, Murphy Creek, Bakken
• 18885, 1,101, QEP, MHA 1-29-30H-150-90, Deep  Water Creek Bay, Bakken, 20K in first 2 months

The QEP well came in with 954 bbls in the first month (30 days of production) but then in 30 days in December, 2010, came in with 19,771 bbls. Either timing of the fracking or takeaway issues resulted in the wide spread is my hunch. 

Murphy Creek is turning out to be a good field. But Murphy Field is one of the biggest fields in the Williston Basin. It is the north half that is the better half, and this Encore well is in the north half of the field.
