Name changes;
It appears that Hess is changing the way it names some of its well, for example:
  • 26812, loc, Hess, EN-Hermanson-LE-155-93-3601H-3 (EN-Hermanson-2560-155-93-3502-3601H-3).
Obviously this is a permit for a 2560-acre spaced well, but instead of naming all four sections, it appears the well name will only include the two sections the horizontal is actually in. From the name alone, one cannot tell that it is a permit for a 2560-acre spaced well. I have to admit, the former designation was getting a bit long; it was probably causing havoc with the company's Excel spreadsheet. Smile. Also, note that these were still Hess Corp wells and not Hess Bakken Investments wells.
Oasis is also changing the names of five Shaw 6092 wells (permits 27463 - 27467); the name changes reflect new targets.
  • 27463: will now target "T" and not "B"
  • 27464: will now target "B" and not "T2"
  • 27465: will now target "T2" and not "T"
  • 27466: will now target "B" and not "T2"
  • 27467: will now target "T" and not "B"
