When I posted the ONEOK story about the new cryo plants, I noted that the new plants will have the capacity to remove 750 wells from flaring their natural gas.
I did note that about 2,000 new wells were being drilled per year, but I did not note this bit of interesting trivia from 2011, in the Bismarck Tribune: of the 5,300 wells producing in North Dakota, only 720 were flaring.
Interesting how these numbers "750" and "720" come so close.
