On Track for 2,460 New Permits This Calendar Year, The Williston Basin, North Dakota

Just two days, I posted that at the rate of new permits being issued, North Dakota was on track for 2,439 new permits this calendar year.

One day later, with the report of 22 more permits, North Dakota is now on track for 2,459 new permits this calendar year.

Back on June 1, 2012, I posted these stats:
My database showed the following number of permits (may or may not include salt water disposal wells):
  • 2012: 2,093 (estimate) -- based on 866 permits issued as of May 31, 2012
  • 2011: 1,940
  • 2010: 1,684 
  • 2009: 629
  • 2008: 956
  • 2007: 497
  • 2006: 422
The pace of permitting has increased significantly since June 1, 2012.
