Random Update On Oasis -- Location Of Wells, Historically, And New Permits -- February 12, 2015

Disclaimer: some of this information comes from my database which may be different than that of the NDIC database. I often make mistakes. I often post quickly and don't get back to proofreading for typographical and factual errors until later. I'm less concerned about the specifics than about the trends. So whether there are 45 Oasis permits/wells in Willow Creek or 42 doesn't matter a whole lot to me. But it helps put it in perspective to know there are about 100 Oasis permits/wells in the Cottonwood oil field, for example. If this information is important to you, go to the source, generally the NDIC.

So far in 2015, Oasis has two new permits. Both of them were for wells in Willow Creek. Willow Creek is in/near one of the best spots in the North Dakota Bakken, north and east of the river, just a few miles east of Indian Hill and a few miles north and northwest of Camp and Banks oil fields.
