Unfracked Well Producing at 10,000 Barrels of Oil Per Month -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Updates

July 13, 2016: #18644 with an update. This well was placed on a pump in August, 2012. There is still no frack report on file (thought it was scheduled to be fracked 3/10) and FracFocus has no report on file that it was fracked.

• 18644, 1,148, Lime Rock Resources/Anschutz, State 1-25-36H-144-97X, Cabernet, t4/10; cum 370K 5/17;

April 11, 2016: there are two new permits on the same pad of these two unfracked wells:

• 30467, loc, Lime Rock Resources, State 4-25-36H-144-97, API: 33-025-02818, Cabernet,
• 30468, loc, Lime Rock Resources, Kary 6-24-13H-144-97, API: 33-025-02819, Cabernet,

April 11, 2016: It appears the sister well on the same pad as the well in the original post, running in the opposite direction has also not been fracked (disclaimer: it's possible these wells have been fracked; that the documentation is simply not there; I don't know):

• 18359, 1,138, Lime Rock Resources, Kary 1-24-13H-144-97, API: 33-025-00984, Cabernet, t4/10; cum 205K 5/17; (as of 5/18/2016 FracFocus had no documentation of any fracking)

April 11, 2016: according to FracFocus, this well (#18644, Lime Rock Resources/Anschutz, State 1-25-36H-144-97X, API: 33-025-01035, and the sundry form says this well was NOT stimulated. First year of production:

Original Post

 

One doesn't see this often in the current Bakken boom (at least to the best of my knowledge):

• 18644, Lime Rock Resources/Anschutz, State 1-25-36H-144-97X, API: 33-025-01035, Cabernet, 24-144-97, 1,148, 370K 5/17;, un-fracked

This well continues to produce at about 10,000 barrels/ month, flowing, not on a pump.

Note, I checked to make sure the link was still good. It is. When I first linked it, the only information was the file report. Since then, the link has a number of very interesting comments from a Bakken expert, comments which I saw for the first time tonight. I highly recommend all folks interested in the nitty-gritty of the Bakken to check out the link. I enjoyed it.
