Although one is tempted to compare bbls of oil/field, one cannot do that due to fact that oil fields can vary significantly in size, as well as varying activity in various fields. The last two columns, bbls/month/well and bbls/day/well are most valuable.
Very interesting. And a huge "thank you" for a reader for sending this in. [It is interesting that Reunion Bay is the only field I have not updated in the sidebar at the right.]
This field is "owned" by Marathon and WPX, with Marathon having the most wells. Except for one (1) Slawson well, every well in Reunion oil field is either an MRO or a WPX well.
Heart Butte and Banks are right in the middle of the northeast McKenzie County Bakken sweet spot and is giving Reunion Bay a run for bragging rights. It is somewhat surprising to see the results of Van Hook.
