Active rigs: 193

Eleven (11) new permits --

• Operators: HRC (5), CLR (4), Whiting (2)
• Fields: Eagle Nest (Dunn), Sand Creek (McKenzie), Ray (Williams), Banks (McKenzie)
• Comments: See below regarding the CLR Garfield well in Banks.

Wells coming off the confidential list were reported earlier; see sidebar at the right.

CLR has new permits for a 4-well pad in 5-152-99, Banks oil field. Already in that section, note how fast this well hit 100,000 bbls:

• 21528, 675, CLR, Garfield 1-5H, Banks, t1/13; cum 134K 11/13;

Meanwhile, HRC (Halcon) has permits for five more wells in 24-148-95, Eagle Nest oil field. From the legal description it looks like all five wells will run south into sections 25/36. There is already one producing well in that drilling unit:

• 20919, 1,547, HRC, Fort Berthold 148-95-25B-36-1H, Eagle Nest, t10/13; cum 126K 11/13;

On that pad, there is another confidential well that will also drain this drilling unit. It looks like these five new permits might "replace" three earlier HRC permits that have been canceled.
 
Slawson has changed the names of three wells which might indicate a change in nomenclature for Slawson wells in general. Below, the original name changed to the new name:

• 21385, Panzer 1-20H, changed to Panzer 1-20MLH
• 21386, Panzer 2-20H, changed to Panzer 2-20MLH
• 21387, Panzer 4-20TFH, changed to Panzer 4-20MLH
