Daily activity report, March 5, 2012 --

Fields: Dimond, Carter, Alger
Something is very strange in today's daily activity report. Almost 100 -- yes, 100 -- wells were listed as released from "tight hole" status, but in fact, most, if not all, have been previously released.
I hope NDIC explains why all of a sudden they reported ~ 100 wells released from "tight hole" that had already been released.
Likewise, almost 30 wells were approved for "tight hole" status which is a much longer list than usual. I do not know if these are new or have been previously reported.
Twelve wells were listed as "plugged or producing."
Overall, I don't know what is new on today's report (except for the six new permits) or what has been reported previously.
