  1. Could you help me understand what this change will mean when all is said and done?

    19797, Hess, amend Truax-Bakken, establish 6 overlapping 2560-acre units; one or more wells; Willliams, McKenzie

    And where is this well pad going to be?

  2. Where will the pads be placed?

    How will the Bakken look in a year, five years, ten years ....

    Anybody's guess.

    There are currently less than 9,000 active wells in North Dakota, half of which are Bakken wells (broadly speaking).

    Prior to the discussion of the lower benches of the Three Forks, at least one operator opined that it will take 48,000 wells to drill out the Bakken. With the lower benches of the Three Forks, that number could rise significantly, by as much as half, based on some projections.

    For as long as I can remember, mineral rights owners in North Dakota have talked about "their well coming in," implying "one well." It is now obvious that anyone who has "one" well in the Bakken will have four wells before it's all over; some will have eight, and in the best Bakken it could be 10, 12 or 14 wells.
