North Dakota Wells, A Comparison Between June, 2014, And June, 2015 -- John Kemp

John Kemp is tweeting some North Dakota data. There are two huge data points (at least) in this graph:

Memo to self: send this graph to Jane Nielson.

John Kemp also provided a breakdown of the IPs for wells completed in North Dakota between June 2014 and June 2015. This would include a very small number of non-Bakken wells which generally have IPs at the far left. The table below: the column to the left is the number of bopd flow, IP; the second column is the number of wells that reported an IP as indicated between June 2014 and June 2015:

Total: 1,172

It appears that 60% or more of North Dakota wells, including some very small Madison and Spearfish wells, a a few dry wells, had an IP of 1,000 bopd or greater.

Note: the numbers come my reading of the graph. Obviously, my reading is not perfect, and I often make simple arithmetic errors.
