Reminder: As Many As 48 Wells/Spacing Unit Might Be Necessary

Based on comments I am receiving, recent news stories, and the October, 2013, NDIC hearing dockets, it might be a good time to remind folks of this post back in June, 2013:
Lynn Helms had said that in the better Bakken, it might take 48 wells per spacing unit. I had not seen the source for that statement.

Another reader was gracious enough to provide the link (see below). This is an incredible briefing provided back in January, 2013. I am amazed that the regional print media did not pick up on this. If any of them did, I missed it. Forty-eight wells/spacing unit in the better Bakken is simply staggering, and when this does not get a headline in the regional media it speaks volumes about local coverage of the Bakken. It really does appear that most folks are focused on that 10-minute wait for a waitress to meet and greet them at a coffee shop
In addition, for newbies, the "FAQ" page provides a lot of information that will help get you up to speed regarding the Bakken.
