I have no financial or investing interests in this story. It is posted to help me understand more about the Bakken, who the players are, how the Bakken compares to other plays across the US. Again, there is absolutely no investing interest on my part with regard to this story. I have no interest, whatsoever, on in the financial aspects of this filing, per se. The financial story will be of more interest as time goes by.

Platts reported that Black Stone Minerals, L.P., is filing for an IPO. The SEC filing is here:  http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1621434/000119312515098669/d792115ds1.htm

A "well search" over at the NDIC website does not reveal any well operated by Black Stone Minerals (which is what one would expect based on the description of the company at the SEC link).

Operators in the Bakken are tracked here.
