Slawson will be drilling some wells with multiple laterals, and with a portion of the vertical section open to the Lodgepole. I can't remember if they opened the vertical to the Lodgepole in their Montana wells, but Slawson is drilling some multiple-lateral wells in Montana (reported earlier). Multiple laterals from the same well in North Dakota has been done very, very rarely and it has not been done in quite some time. This is a new wrinkle, at least for me, with regard to developing the Bakken on the North Dakota side of the state line.
