The full list includes 67 producers. If you don't see "yours" in the list above and are interested, let me know in the comment section below.

More statistics to follow. Don't read too much into bbls/well without thinking about reasons for variations. Companies who drill a lot of wells, may have had a lot of wells come on line in the last couple of months of 2010, thereby skewing their 2010 results. Companies who brought on most of their wells in early 2010 would have artificially "higher" numbers, for example.

There may be typographical errors. I will correct them as I find them. Not all wells targeted the Bakken formation. I have explained in earlier postings the reason for identifying the current North Dakota boom as the "Bakken," even though it encompasses more than just the Bakken.

Data comes from a "free sample" of the best oil journal in the universe, the Rocky Mountain Oil Journal, Volume 91, No 8, February 25 - March 3, 2011.
