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

Daily activity report:

Drillers: BEXP (4), Slawson (2), Samson Resources (2), Hess (2), Denbury, XTO, CLR.

Fields: Kittleson Slough, Poe, Briar Creek, Eldridge, Robinson Lake, Tobacco Garden, Black Slough, Foothills, Grinnell, Alger.

Two fields are completely new to me: Black Slough and Foothills; permits in these two fields both by Samson Resources.

All drillers with multiple permits today are for 2-well pads. BEXP has permits for two new 2-well pads.

The rest of the daily report is relatively unremarkable. When I get to better location I will add additional information (I'm out walking this evening in downtown Boston and just checked in for daily activity report and typing this from my iPad).

The only really interesting well reporting is a Fidelity well many of us have been waiting for:
19277, 118, Fidelity, Oukrop 34-34H, Stark County.
Later I will compare this well with WLL wells in the area.

More later. Probably after 11:00 p.m. EST.
