Now, if one then goes to the well file at the NDIC website for the CLR Salem well, the top pages are misplaced: the top pages are of an XTO well:

The well file for the XTO Flatland well is lacking the completion (fracking) data; those three pages are erroneously placed on top of CLR's Salem 1-6H well file.
Those are the facts.
Now, the comments.
Look at the scout tickets/spreadsheets above.
Does the CLR Salem 1-6H well look like it's inactive? It was taken off-line for a couple of months, for whatever reason, but it's producing at a nice clip, at least as of January, 2013, the most recent month for which data is available.
Then, look at the XTO Flatland well. That was a single stage frack with 600,000 lbs proppant. It has produced all of 314 bbls of oil and none in January, 2013, the most recent month for which data is available. It's part of a 4-well pad; the other wells are also very recent, and it's possibly this Flatland well was taken off line while the others were being completed. But I don't know.
I didn't read through everything, and I am not "fully literate" when it comes to well files, but that's what I see: there is a mix-up of paperwork in the CLR Salem 1-6H well file, and with the Salem well producing 4,000 bbls of oil in 22 days in January, 2013, it's hard to believe it's inactive.
Disclaimer: I could be way wrong on my comments. The folks over at the Bakken Shale Discussion Group could probably answer the question better. I don't mind if I'm told I'm wrong, as long as I learn something along the way.
