- 18005, DRY/SI, WLL, Jones 44-35, Wildcat, Bakken -- very interesting. Vertical. See link.
WLL has been issued a permit to drill another well in section 36, T143N-105W, less than a half mile to the southeast.
- 20889, LOC, WLL, Henry State 24-36H, another wildcat
For newbies, some facts, and then you can connect the dots:
- The current boom is all about horizontal drilling
- A vertical well is very inexpensive compared to a horizontal well
- In the "old" days, it was not unusual for a company to drill vertical wells to get information about a new area
- Hess has six wells monitoring a long lateral (although they are still confidential, my hunch is they are all vertical wells)
