Nice Thread Elsewhere On Factors Affecting Production -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Link here.

Of all that was said, the most interesting point was that regarding flaring: all things being equal, it would be nice not to flare, but if natural gas is not captured (put into pipeline) or flared, there is risk the well could blow due to natural gas build-up. Think of a shaken Coors bottle of beer or a shaken bottle of diet Coke.

When one reviews the list of things that affect Bakken production, it is obvious that North Dakota has the potential of passing both California and Alaska before the year is out in daily production. Exciting.
