Trivial Chatter -- Painted Woods Oil Field -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

This evening I took the opportunity to see the flooding of the Missouri around Williston, North Dakota. It is quite remarkable.

On the way back home I drove through Painted Woods oil field, and was amazed at all the activity. It is one thing to post about the Bakken based on what I read, but it's quite another thing to actually drive through it. I didn't have much time so it was a quick look, but here are some of the wells in the Painted Woods oil field. Talk in Williston is that this field has turned out to be quite a good field.

Again, for newbies, I use 100,000 bbls of cumulative oil as a significant milestone. Once a well hits 100,000 bbls (in my mind), it's free and clear for the rest of its producing history. 

This is a "cut and paste" from the Painted Woods field update:
