- July, 2011: 2,500 boepd
- Estimate for December, 2011:
5,000 boepd(I read this wrong; see first comment; exit rate could be closer to 9,000 boepd)
This trend will hold true for most producers in the Bakken, although certainly not to this extent.
If current North Dakota production is 385,000 boepd, could we see a minimum of 500,000 boepd for the state by the end of the year?
Production across the board would have to increase 20,000 boepd (5%) each month. It will be tough, but doable.
Alaska, number 2, currently at 550,000 boepd.
California, number 3, currently at 540,000 boepd.
