Original Note

Note: in long posts like this, there will be factual and typographical errors. Do not use this as a source. It is for my use only as a way to keep track of the Bakken. You are free to do with it what you want but don't quote me on it or use it as a reference. If this is important to you, go to the source.

For newbies, Whiting's Tarpon wells in Sand Creek have been incredibly nice wells. I have written about them in many posts, but this is where I guess I track them, with IPs and updated production numbers. At least that's where the "family link" takes me.

It's possible I have a graphic of the Tarpon wells somewhere but I didn't quickly find a graphic, so perhaps it's time.

It was initially (and probably still is) confusing to me because Whiting has two areas with Tarpon Federal wells.

Broad overview: Whiting's first Tarpon Federal wells were in the Twin Valley oil field. Subsequently, Tarpon Federal wells were drilled in Sand Creek oil field and that's where most of them currently are:
