Three (3) New Permits -- The Williston Basin, North Dakota, USA

Daily activity report, March 12, 2012 --

Operators: OXY USA, Crescent Point Energy, and Whiting

Fields: Murphy Creek

Crescent Point and Whiting each have a permit for a wildcat, CPE in Williams County, and Whiting's in Golden Valley

Twenty-one (21) wells came off the "confidential" list. One was a salt water disposal; fifteen (15) wells reported an IP, including:
  • 20083, 25, OXY USA, Richard Dvorak 1-33-28H-143-95, Dunn County, Bakken,
  • 20194, 63, OXY USA, wannemacher 1-4-9H-142-95, Dunn County, Bakken, 
  • 20824, 1,229, MRO, Bears Ghost USA 31-4H, Dunn County, Bakken,
  • 20950, 55, Silver Oak Energy, Rankin 1-35H, Slope County, Red River B (not a Bakken)
  • 21380, 1,424, Hess, LK-Pohribnak 147-96-16H-2, Dunn County, Bakken, 
The others were all Bakken wells; of the remaining ones that reported an IP, most fell in the 250 - 850 range, about what one would expect, nothing remarkable. They will all be reported elsewhere, under "New Wells Reporting" once the data is posted (and I get to it).

Seven more wells were reported as producing or plugged.

No wells on DRL status reported an IP today.

  1. is it me? Or does Oxy USA seem to get some very low IP's compared to other operators around them? Whether South or North in the Bakken?

    1. Nope, it's not just you. I first blogged about it in January, 2012:

      At least no one can accuse OXY USA of inflating their IPs.
