Update On The Tyler, Southwest North Dakota

Read this post for background. To the best of my knowledge, there is no official information yet out on the MRO Tyler wells.

However, still on "drl" status, but with production numbers:
  • 25347, drl, Williston Exploration, LLC, Rocky Ridge-Fritz 1, Rocky Ridge, Heath, spud 5/13; with nine days of production in November and 128 bbls of oil.

HEATH11-2013912801227000

To the best of my knowledge, "Heath" and "Tyler" are used interchangeably, but if I am wrong, hopefully readers will correct me.

From the well file:
  • spud date: May 18, 2013
  • cease drilling date: June 4, 2013
  • total depth: 8,280 feet
  • wellsite geologist: Heidi Smith / Neset
  • a vertical well, targeting the Tyler
  • Tyler: total vertical depth - 7,994 feet
  • Otter: total vertical depth - 8,246 feet
  • "The well is awaiting completion."
  • 80-acre spacing
To compare this to a Bakken well, perhaps, some thoughts:
  • 31 days / 9 days  = 3.4
  • 1280 acres / 80 acres = 16
  • 128 x 3.4 x 16 = ~ 7,000 bbls/ the first month in the Bakken; not bad
In addition the cost to drill a vertical well with no horizontal/multi-stage fracking is a whole lot less expensive than drilling/fracking the Bakken.

Just idle chatter.
