  • Operators: Denbury (4), CLR (3), Hunt, GMXR, EOG
  • Fields: Frazier (Divide), Siverston (McKenzie), Beicegel Creek (McKenzie), Painted Woods (Williams), Border (Divide), Banks (McKenzie)
These wells came off the confidential list: None.
No producing wells reported any completions.

The Four Benches: An Update

Regular readers know that CLR is testing five zones in the Bakken Pool (the first operator to have done when it is complete): middle Bakken, TF1 (bench #1, upper Three Forks); TF2 (second bench in the Three Forks); TF3 (third bench in the Three Forks); TF4 (fourth bench in the Three Forks). And note: all four benches are part of the Three Forks formation, and the middle Bakken and TF1 have source rock from the upper and lower Bakken shale.  

In today's daily activity report, the fifth of the five permits was issued for the Charlotte wells:
  • 23664, loc, CLR, Charlotte 3-22H, SESE 22-152N-99W, Banks, McKenzie,
Now, you're up to date. Like that will last an hour.

A Note For My Granddaughters
Johnny Carson

I'm back where I can watch television. Nothing is on that interests me. I see PBS must be fund raising again; I see another showing of the Johnny Carson retrospective. I've never seen much of this retrospective, always catching the end. It's a difficult show to watch. I can easily tear up watching it; there are only a few movies or television shows that can affect me that much.
Some months ago, when I saw it for the first time, I reflected back on it, asking why Johnny Carson could affect me in such a strong way. This may be why: "The Tonight Show" was the one constant in my life during my formative years, during my coming of age. No matter how things were going in my life, thirty minutes at the end of the day with Johnny Carson was all I needed.

  1. You're a funny guy, Bruce. I needed a laugh tonight and that last line gave it to me :-) And let's keep track of Charlotte. That just may be a very important chapter in this ever changing Bakken story.

    1. Yes, it didn't even "last an hour" before I added that note to my granddaughters.

      Thank you for the feedback; it's nice to know folks are reading my notes.
