Update On The Atlanta Wells, Baker Oil Field, Southwest Of Williston Near The River

I track the Atlanta wells here, one of the first 14-wells pads in the Bakken. 

It sure has been a long time getting these wells completed.

The first two were spud in November, 2012, and tested April, 2013.

All of the wells have now been drilled to total depth, on DRL status, and folks are waiting for test (IP) results.

It is possible to frack in very, very cold weather, but it is my understanding that it is more expensive and more difficult (I don't know if that still holds true). If I recall correctly, some companies (EOG?) did not used to frack in the dead of winter. Be that as it may. There may be something happening on the Atlanta pads.

The two wells that were completed first, tested in April, 2013, are now off line, and have been off-line pretty much for the past three months (through November, 2013, the most recent month for which we have data).

 [I assume the "-2" for bbls of oil produced in November, 2013, for #23372, is a typographical error unless Harold Hamm is putting oil back into the ground, waiting for better crude oil prices.]
