  1. They should also boast about selling their oil consistently for over $100 a barrel. Sure wish I had more acreage with them.

    1. Yes, EOG is one of my favorite companies. I haven't had a chance to comment on the EOG press release. I've been way too busy updating Painted Woods oil field which used to be a STATOIL field, but now EOG is there also.

      Painted Woods is very, very instructive field. It might not be so noticeable to the casual viewer or the newbie, but the Painted Woods oil field which is a very, very average Bakken field, I think, is going to surprise folks, and might even challenge fields like the Sanish or the Parshall before it's all over.

      EOG is doing very, very well.
