• 18610, 877, Lime Rock Resources/OXY USA, Harry Stroh 1-8-5H-143-96, Fayette, Bakken; s1/11; t10/11; cum 574K 1/20; production of 33,000 bbls in 14 days in October, 2011; then down to 31,000 bbls in 30 days in November, 2011; middle Bakken target; 5 stimulation stages; 393,000 lbs of proppant;

With 33,000 bbls in 14 days, one wonders if this well would have set some kind of 30-day monthly record.
