This is the frack data from the wells that have reported IPs in the last couple of days.
I'm always wary of reports which do not provide details of the frack; when they say a "sand frack" without data, one can assume no ceramics, but I don't know for sure. Caveat: this was done quickly; there may be data errors; there may be typos.

ReplyDeleteWhere is the information on fracking for individual wells on the NDIC website?
You need a paid subscription for "Basic Services." $50/year and well worth it.
DeleteGo to the NDIC website; on the side bar at the left, click on "Basic Services" to find out how to subscribe; if you have Basic Services subscription, click on Scout Ticket Data. Type in permit/file number of the well; submit.
When the scout ticket shows up, click on "Well File." It will request "OK" to download a PDF file.
This is where it gets tricky. Near the top of MOST well files, the operator has a 3-page form which has all the data. The first page is the overview which includes the IP; the second page are the geologic markers in feet, and the target; and the third page is the fracking data.
Unfortunately not all operators/NDIC place the 3-page form at the very top and it might be a bit buried and you have to scroll through the well file looking for it. If it doesn't show up near the top, it probably hasn't been scanned in yet. It appears the well file is scanned in with newest pages pages on top, and since completion/fracking is about the last thing they do, those three pages should be at the top.
Over the years, as the well changes hands, there will be additional forms indicating to whom the well is transferred, but the Bakken is new enough that the top forms are still the completion forms in most cases.
Bruce,
ReplyDeleteWould you mind seeing how one other well was fracked? It is an EOG well, "Lostwood 22-1423H" which just reported an IP of 288. It was drilled in Mountrail Co., 158-91 Section 14.
I'd like to see a comparison in frack stages and lbs with the Brigham well you posted here. Their "ENNS 28-21" well reported an IP of 773. These two wells are slightly more than a mile apart and both were drilled on along a N-S line. So I'm curious if BEXP's higher IP might be tied to the number of stages used. Thanks.
20 or 21.
DeleteI was unable to find the standard 3-page form that most operators send in showing the completion/frack data. This is not unusual for EOG. They seem not to get their completion forms in for quite some time -- just a personal observation. I always hate looking for things at EOG well files. (On the other hand, BEXP is one of the easiest.)
However, going back to the very beginning when they requested a permit for this well from the NDIC, EOG said they would be placing swell packers at 450-feet intervals, 21 in all for 20 stages. That's what was proposed.
However, I could have guessed that: BEXP is routinely completing with 36 stages and EOG is completing with significantly less. I think 20 is about EOG's usual.
Thank you for looking into this. As always I appreciate the wealth of information you share on this site!
DeleteYou are welcome. I have learned a lot doing this. But, some well files are a real pain to go through. BEXP has always been very easy.
