CLR is going to report this well tomorrow. None of the wells in the immediate area even come close to the production numbers in the first two months. In fact, most of the wells in this area are "just ok." This well is north of Williston, in Williams County, near Divide County. It will be interesting to learn more about this well.
- 27545, see above, CLR, Knox 1-16H, Winner, 13 days spud to total depth; a huge well,

Global Warming And Tilting At Windmills
I'm posting this for the archives. I assume no one will read the entirety of
the linked article over at The New York Times. The article is on Germany's transition to renewable energy. It is costing the average German a lot of money, and there are questions whether the transition will even succeed. The article concludes:
“Indeed,
the German people are paying significant money,” said Markus
Steigenberger, an analyst at Agora, the think tank. “But in Germany, we
can afford this — we are a rich country. It’s a gift to the world.”
I wonder if the average German is aware how little their efforts will result in anything meaningful. I wonder if the average German has looked at
the graphic at the bottom of this article. Because it's always possible that the graphic will disappear some day, here are the data points.
G-20 countries are largely liable for keeping this from happening, as
they contribute about 85 percent of global carbon emissions. This chart
shows the breakdown by country, with China coming in at a whopping 27.6
percent, and the U.S. trailing close behind at 16.7 percent:
- China: 28%
- US: 17%
- Germany: 2.4%
- UK: 1.5%
- France: 1.1%
- Italy: 1.1%
- Other EU: 5.1%
- India: 5.6%
- Russia: 4.8%
- Japan: 4.0%
- Canada: 1.7%
- Other: 16.4%
