NDIC Hearing Dockets Agenda For February Is Posted; Very, Very Short -- January 30, 2015

Link here.

Dockets are tracked here. 

First run-through of the February, 2015, agenda; cases that caught my eye:

• 23714, SHD, Van Hook and/or Heart Butte-Bakken, establish an overlapping 3520-acre unit, 27 wells; Dunn, McLean
• 23715, SHD, Heart Butte-Bakken, establish a 1600-acre unit; 17 wells, Dunn
• 23716, SHD, Heart Butte and Deep Water Creek Bay-Bakken, establish an overlapping 7520-acre unit; 2 wells, Dunn, McLean
• 23717, SHD, Deep Water Creek Bay-Bakken, establish an overlapping 4000-acre unit, 3 wells; Dunn, McLean
• 23728, CLR, Catwalk-Bakken, establish 2 overlapping 1600-acre units, 14 wells on each; establish an overlapping 3200-acre unit, 1 well, Williams
• 23733, XTO, North Tobacco Garden-Bakken, establish a 1920-acre unit, 12 wells; McKenzie
• 23734, XTO, Haystack Butte-Bakken, establish a 2560-acre unit, 16 wells, McKenzie
• 23655, Whiting, Banks-Bakken, establish a 2560-acre unit, 28 wells, Williams, McKenzie
• 23656, Whiting, Sand Creek-Bakken, establish a 1280-acre unit, 14 wells on that new unit, plus 14 wells on an existing 1280-acre unit; McKenzie

Much of the rest had to do with:

• overlapping 2560-acre units; 2 wells
• flaring (three cases only)
• pooling
• continuation cases

Comment: two wells on a 7520-acre unit is unitization by another name.
