This is for newbies, an example of how operators can cut back production during period of slumping oil prices:

The well:

• 24799, A, CLR, Rollefstad Federal 7-3H-1, Antelope, no test date, probably completed around 2/14; cum 128K 3/15; 

Production profile:

SANISH	3-2015	7	1323	1430	1104	3289	3071	218
SANISH	2-2015	13	3255	3310	2586	5770	5651	119
SANISH	1-2015	19	4940	5186	5227	5059	4921	138
SANISH	12-2014	23	5877	5672	643	5786	5149	637
SANISH	11-2014	22	5841	6166	816	7989	7767	222
SANISH	10-2014	31	15119	15441	4407	23907	22111	1796
SANISH	9-2014	29	20216	19991	4787	32098	29687	2411
SANISH	8-2014	28	14523	14662	8809	16746	12862	3884
SANISH	7-2014	31	15759	15597	7024	22426	17717	4709
SANISH	6-2014	30	13710	13454	10279	23278	16694	6584
SANISH	5-2014	30	16935	16946	16320	19928	17294	2634

This is why it's literally impossible to predict what the Bakken will produce any given month.
