Random Look At Stockyard Creek

Regular readers know that I am absolutely fascinated by this little field. Part of the reason is that I know this area very well; I have driven through it a gazillion times on the way out out to the river. It's a beautiful stretch of road and this particular stretch is quite pretty especially during the "green" season.

I am also fascinated by all the operators working in this relatively small field.

I follow Stockyard Creek here. The permits and IPs have been updated. The cumulative production numbers are updated through 8/13.

This is what caught my attention most recently, from the January, 2014, NDIC hearings:
Case No. 21617: Application of Kodiak Oil & Gas (USA) Inc. for an order amending the applicable orders for the Stockyard Creek-Bakken Pool to authorize up to twelve horizontal wells to be drilled on six 1280-acre spacing units described as Sections 1 and 12; Sections 2 and 11; Sections 3 and 10; Sections 4 and 9; Sections 5 and 8; and Sections 6 and 7, T.154N., R.99W., Williams County, ND, and granting such other relief as may be appropriate.
12 wells in each of six 1280-acre drilling units. Seventy-two KOG wells in the area outlined in red:



The interesting thing about this case: I assume these will be middle Bakken and upper Three Forks wells. The wells targeting the lower benches of the Three Forks will come later.
