Thar She Is! A Million-Bbl Bakken Well In This Boom

I"ve been waiting a year to post this (on May 8, 2014, I posted that it must have passed the one-million-bbl milestone in early April): a Bakken well in the current Bakken boom just went over the one-million-bbl milestone:

• 20210, 803, CLR, Whitman 2-34H, Oakdale, Bakken, s1/11; t9/11; F; cum 1.02 million bbls 3/14; 24 stages; 2.4 million lbs; middle Bakken; runs south; 4 section spacing;

Note that NDIC reports that this well is still flowing on its own, not on a pump, and there is nothing in the well file to indicate otherwise, unless it's "buried" and I missed it.

Back on August 24, 2013, I posted a production update. Not much has changed. It is still producing 24,000 bbls of oil/month.

Back on November 19, 2012, another post on this incredible field.

The well has been on-line for about 3.5 years. Bakken wells are predicted to produce for 39 years.
