KOG's Pilot Project

NOTE: the P Wood wells are updated at another post, click here. 

I can't remember if I ever posted this as a stand-along post. I buried it deep in another post, but can't remember if I made it a stand-alone post. At the risk of re-posting something, here it is, simply a "cut and paste" without editing:

Re: the Polar - they're doing a 6 middle Bakken, 6 Three Forks pilot there (3 in the upper bench, 3 in the 2nd bench), wells 800 feet apart and in the TFS, 50' apart vertically ... testing communication on a bit bigger scale than they have in the past. Results by year end.

Over two years ago, one can find posts suggesting that the effectiveness of fracks in the Bakken suggested 500-foot separation. They're getting closer.

These are probably the wells Z-Man is referring to; this was taken from a post dated December 14, 2012:
