And Still Another Great Hess Well -- The Bakken, North Dakota, USA

As mentioned earlier, Hess is really reporting some great wells now that they have increased the number of frac stages.

I would have missed this one, but a reader sent it in:

• 20186, 752,  Hess, Thompson 15-31H, wildcat-->South Meadow, 31-158-96; t10/11; 116K 8/14;

This was originally an American Oil and Gas (AEZ) permit (Hess bought AEZ last year); is a wildcat, and is located close to Tioga, North Dakota (northwest of Tioga).

It will be interesting to see the IP and the first six months of production.

But 15,000 bbls in first 19 days of production. Incredible.
