BEXP Reports Another Nice Well: Roger Sorenson 8-5 1H -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

19070, 2,345, BEXP, Roger Sorenson 8-5 1H, Alger, Bakken.

But that's about all the good news. Of the 13 wells that came off the confidential list over the weekend, eight (8) of them only reported "DRL" status. Apparently they are still waiting to be fracked, and no production data is available.

A second "Oil for America" well was released from confidential status over the weekend, but still no production data:
  • 19272, DRL, Oil for America, Wolf 29-1, Wildcat, Lodgepole
The first "Oil for America" released was the Zastoupil:
  • 19258, 75, Oil for America, Zastoupil 22-1, Wildcat, Lodgepole; well status - IA, 3/11.
Interestingly enough, I did not think the Lodgepole wells required horizontal fracking so their delay in releasing production figures is interesting.
From the well file, the Zastoupil was drilled in slightly less than five (5) days.  The depth was about 9,651 feet. The NDIC report notes that 75 bbls of oil were produced over one day, in March, 2011. This well is on 160-acre spacing.

Other than the spud date of September 6, 2010, and 160-acre spacing, there was no other pertinent information regarding the Wolf well.
