Fifteen (15) New Permits -- The Williston Basin, North Dakota, USA; HRC And Oasis Report Some Huge Wells

Active rigs: 181

Fifteen (15) new permits --

• Operators: CLR (8), XTO (3), KOG (1), Fidelity (1), QEP (1), Oasis (1)
• Fields: Grail (McKenzie), Ukraina (Billings), Gros Ventre (Burke), Jim Creek (Dunn), Oakdale (McKenzie), Siverston (McKenzie), Alger (Mountrail), Pembroke (McKenzie)
• Comments: When I see permits for the Gros Ventre and the Ukraina I get the feeling operators are still delineating the Williston Basin oil fields; when I see permits for the Grail, Oakdale, Siverston, I know it is strictly for the cash flow (unless CLR is testing some lower benches)
