Random Update Of A KOG Well East Of Williston

For newbies, just another example of the relevancy of IPs:
  • 23423, 820, KOG, Northern 155-100-30-31-1H, Springbrook oil field, 35 stages; 4.1 million lbs; t12/12; cum 173K 9/13
This well had a very nice, but somewhat unremarkable -- for the Bakken -- IP of 820 bbls. And now, less than a year later, still flowing on its own (no pump noted at the NDIC website -- though reports are often delayed) this well has already produced almost 175,000 bbls of oil. Also note, that it has not been on-line every day most months, some days as few as 18 days pumping:

One also notes that all natural gas is being flared due to lack of natural gas processing plant capacity. Even if KOG put in the pipeline, there would be no place for the natural gas to be processed.

I could be wrong, but I think I drove past this well a couple of weeks ago: it sits on the northwest corner of a huge sand and gravel pit, which is remarkable for all the temporary housing units co-located at the site. One gets a great satellite view on Google. Zoom in at the corner of 134th Avenue NW and 56th NW, northeast of Williston. Again, I could be wrong but it certainly seems to fit.
