Monday Morning

Production data for wells coming off the confidential list over the weekend and today have been posted.

I will be off the net for a short period of time while I ride my bike through the snow to get to the coffee shop.  Beautiful day out there with about 0.5" of new snow.

Remember the virus alert posted over the weekend.

RBN Energy: Brent/WTI spread didn't narrow all that much despite reversal of the Seaway. Apparently there are some operational issues affecting the full expansion; issues may not be resolved until 4Q13. Crude is "off a dollar" in pre-market trading.

CLR issued a press release overnight announcing a webcast. As a reminder, in that press release:
In October 2012 , the Company announced a new five-year plan to triple production and proved reserves by year-end 2017.

Maps with location of rigs in North Dakota and the United States can be found at "Data Links." Overnight "anon 1" sent another link for Nomac Drilling which has been added at that link, or go here directly.

Low rates are forcing companies to pour money into pension plans to shore them up.

Tech titans clash in "cloud"; this is interesting phenomenon; yesterday Amazon let me know that all the CDs I had purchased from them over the years were now available in the "cloud" for free; that's really quite incredible when you think about it

  1. Did you notice well #24924 and her sisters. Daily Activity
    This again seems way too far east to me. But it is consistent with the 16 Bakken-Hunter wells.

  2. I'm just glad it's CLR drilling. Hayland is a two-section oil field and it looks like CLR has 8 permits for this field in today's daily activity report. The good news: there are a couple of Bakken wells in that spacing unit/oil field that appear to be "okay" wells.
