This Is NOT an NDIC Typo

Updates

November 7, 2012: this post has been updated.

Original Post

The well file confirms that BR is reporting this as a 6,800-bbl IP.

Interestingly, BR doesn't label it as a "sand frack," but as "other," though it appears it was simply sand and ceramics. 5-stage fracture, short lateral in the Charlson.

There is an "old" vertical well in the immediate area that has targeted and produced from four payzones over the years; and has produced a cumulative of almost 400,000 bbls from non-Bakken "legacy" formations.

There is also another old Silurian vertical that has produced about 170,000 bbls of oil over the years, and is now producing oil from the Bakken. It is displayed as a vertical well with no horizontal leg on the NDIC GIS server map. Very, very fascinating.

The Charlson has always fascinated me.

If this IP "holds" -- I expect to see a bit of discussion regarding this one. Thank goodness for the Bakken Shale Discussion Group.

There are two more short lateral wells in the same section that are nearing completion.
