Wow! Thirteen (13) New Permits -- Eighteen (18) Yesterday -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Daily activity report, August 23, 2011 --

Operators: BEXP (5), EOG (2), Hess, Fidelity, Zenergy, XTO, Zavanna, Burlington Resources

Fields: Kittleson Slough, Foreman Butte, Alger, West Capa, Parshall, Cedar Coulee, Sanish, and a wildcat.

BEXP has two 2-well pad permits; BR has the wildcat.

Two wells released from confidential status but placed on DRL status, waiting to be completed (fracked). In past two days, 9 wells came off the confidential list; only one fracked at six month point.

However, 12 wells reported an IP today (previously on DRL status, no complete). Many of them very good wells (reported elsewhere). Here are some of the good ones:
  • 17468, 878, MRO, Hendricks 34-20H, Dunn County
  • 19087, 1,395, Newfield, 1-H Sandhill 25-36, Williams County
  • 19284, 1,130, MRO, Edward Darwin 14-35H, Dunn County
  • 19323, 2,521, Helis, Thompson 1-29/32H, McKenzie County
  • 19533, 1,342, North Plains Energy, Hellandsaas 16-8H, McKenzie County
  • 19834, 1,291, MRO, Jacob Madison 11-27H, Mountrail County
  • 19961, 2,816, KOG, Koala 3-2-11-14H, McKenzie County
  • 20022, 1,067, SM, Jaynes 16-12H, McKenzie County
The MRO wells are particularly interesting. MRO had a reputation for rather mediocre IPs (500 range was typical, so these are quite extraordinary; I've noticed this about MRO the past few months; IPs are increasing.

That KOG well is very, very nice, of course.
