Who Is Doing The Permitting In North Dakota?

As of October 5, these are the number of permits issued so far in 2012 for the following operators, and then farther down, by county:
Abraxas: 8
American Eagle: 11
Baytex: 16
BEXP: 179
BR: 63
CLR: 233
EOG: 44
Fidelity: 45
Hess: 179
Hunt: 27
KOG: 51
MRO: 50
Newfield: 23
Oasis: 70
OXY USA: 72
Petro-Hunt: 81
QEP: 23
Samson Resources: 47
Slawson: 51
SM Energy: 37
Triangle: 30
Whiting: 154
XTO: 53
By county:
Divide: 119
Dunn: 328
McKenzie: 558
Mountrail: 305
Stark: 73
Williams: 337
I don't know if there are any surprises in the list, except perhaps the aggressive BEXP permitting program. (Note: my data base and/or my counting could be off by one or two permits, but it's pretty close.)

    1. I replied to your comment re: tight hole status -- same as confidential list.

      CLR = Continental Resources.
