Grinnell Oil Field, The Bakken, Williston Basin, North Dakota

The Grinnell oil field has not seen much action because most of it is "under" the Missouri River, in the southeast corner of Williams County/northeast corner of McKenzie County. Other than the fact it is "under" the River, it is very near, if not smack dab, in the middle of the sweet spot of the Bakken.

Grinnell oil field is a long, rectangular field, approximately 4 sections by 11 sections, and the major portion of it is under the river. Three important oil fields abut the Grinnell field: Charlson to the southeast, Banks to the southwest, and Truax to the northwest. It appears with rare exceptions all sections are held by one horizontal well. One can tell it is a "new" field for Bakken operators: there are no 640-acre drilling units in the Grinnell oil field; they are all 1280-acre drilling units in the field.

I think it's going to be a great field. The field is pretty much owned by the XOM subsidiary, XTO.
