Oasis Anticipating 84 Wells in the Heart of the Bakken -- North Dakota, USA

From the May, 2012, NDIC hearing dockets

17789, Oasis, Sorkness-Bakken, 6 wells on 4 existing 1280-acre units; 24 wells; Mountrail County
17790, Oasis, Bonetrail-Bakken, 6 wells on 5 existing 1280-acre units; 30 wells; Williams County
17791, Oasis, Sanish-Bakken, 6 wells on an existing 640-acre unit; Mountrail County
17792, Oasis, Camp-Bakken, 6 wells on 3 existing 1280-acre units; 18 wells; McKenzie County
17793, Oasis, Willow Creek-Bakken; 6 wells on an existing 1280-acre unit, McKenzie/Wms

I did this quickly; didn't double-check for accuracy, and may be misreading the dockets. But this is my initial take.   I am not concerned with "absolute accuracy" -- whether I'm off by a few wells or not. It's the general picture I'm interested in. In this case, 6 wells on a 640-acre spacing unit; six wells on 1280-acre spacing units. Compare with 8 wells on 1280-acre spacing units that Zenergy is looking at.

  1. Excellent work. This information about Oasis and Zenergy illustrates the new oil field management protocol, that being, once you've got the lease held by production.....the real Bakken art can unfold....mining nucleated crude from shale...from single pads at four or five different levels...

    dis isnt the old oil bidness fellas.

    1. If EURs don't suffer significantly with six wells on a 640-acre spacing unit, this will really be amazing.
