Update on Alberta Bakken from the Calgary Herald

Things are slow today. Thank goodness for readers sending me links.

Things are so slow, I was updating Keystone XL sites and deficit problems for Los Angeles, Greece, and the US.

So, it was nice to get this link from a reader: DeeThree update in the Alberta Bakken.
In a report late last year, research firm Wood Mackenzie said the tight oil play that straddles the Alberta-Montana border could contain a recoverable 2.6 billion barrels of oil.

DeeThree added Tuesday it had purchased 5,700 hectares of Crown land prospective for Alberta Bakken in the second quarter and now has a total of 10,100 hectares.

The company said it has two drilling rigs operating on the lands, where its two most recently completed wells tested at 808 boe/d over nine days and 630 boe/d over eight days.
The article is a great opportunity to remind newbies that the Alberta Bakken is west of the Williston Basin Bakken, and is not part of "the Bakken" that most readers associate with this blog.
