Five (5) New Permits -- North Dakota, USA

Producers: Anschutz (2), Burlington Resources, Tracker, and EOG.

Fields: Blue Buttes, Clear Water, Murphy Creek, and a wildcat.

The two Anschutz wells will be on a single pad in Murphy Creek in Dunn County.

The wildcat is a Tracker wildcat, ten (10) miles southwest of Watford City. This area continues to pick up in activity.

The results of only one well was reported on today's daily activity report (DAR) despite the fact that several wells came off the confidential list today, which I posted elsewhere earlier today.

The one well reported in the DAR:

• 18599, 1,003, Anschutz, Andrew Schmidt 1-3-10H-143-97, Dunn Country.  It was considered a wildcat, but is now in Cabernet oil field, a very good field.
