There Really Are Some Incredible Wells Being Reported: Random Look At A Blue Buttes Well

Newbies may want to acquaint themselves with this incredible field, the Blue Buttes field.

22050, 2,806, BR, Kummer 41-30MBH, Blue Buttes, t5/12; cum 140K 11/12; 2-section spacing; completion report not seen (1/27/13); this particular well lies less than a thousand feet from the "Helis Grail"

Some things to note:

• 140K in less than 7 months; the first two months were somewhat unremarkable, but once they got going ... wow!
• compare this production table with older wells; generally there is a huge drop off in production (the "dreaded Bakken decline rate") after the first month, certainly by the second month; here the production has held steady for five months
• notice how fast "they" got this well hooked up to a natural gas pipeline
