Reminder: The Mike Filloon Article; EOG's Super-Long, Super-Productive Wells

I've posted this before -- the link to the most recent Mike Filloon article, but if one is truly interested in "Bakken_101" this is an incredibly good article. The amount of information Mike has put together is simply staggering. Scroll through the production profiles he has provided. The production profiles will water your eyes.

As just one example:

• 22486, 2,421, EOG, Hawkeye 100-2501H, Clarks Creek, t9/12; cum 666K 6/15.

Other data points:

• 47 stages
• 14 million lbs of sand
• the lateral is 13,700 feet long; a super-long lateral; extends the distance of almost three full sections
• note the production profile below: as much as 55,000 bbls of oil in one month; if one adds up all the days the well was not in production, it adds up to almost a full year;

From Mike Filloon at the linked article:

Hawkeye 100-2501H had some excellent early production numbers. From that perspective, it is one of the best wells to date in the Bakken. It has already produced 655,000 bbls of crude and 960,000 Mcf of natural gas.

It has revenues in excess of $42 million to date.

This includes roughly four non-producing or unproductive months.

Crude production over the first 360 days was 389,835 bbls. Over the first 12 months, this well produced crude revenues in excess of $23 million. Decline rates were higher, as the first full month of production declined 65% over the first year. This isn't important as early production rates were some of the highest seen in North Dakota.

It is important to note, decline rates are emphasized but higher pressured wells may deplete faster depending on choke and how quickly production is propelled up and out of the wellbore. Any well that produces very well initially will have higher decline rates, but this does not lessen the value of the well.

This specific well is depleting faster, but no one is complaining about payback times well under a year. Decline rates decrease significantly in year two at 11%. This well saw a marked increase in production when adjacent wells were turned to sales. The additional pressure associated with well communication increased production from 20,000 bbls/month to 35,000 bbls/month on average. This occurred over a 6 month period.

 My hunch is that this well is being choked back at the moment.
