Fidelity broken up into five pieces; sold four, still holding one, if I recall correctly. Prior to these recent deals, Lime Rock Resources bought some Fidelity property. Today we see that two wells were transferred from Fidelity to Lime Rock Resources:

• 29203, loc, Hansen 18-19RD, Stanley oil field, Mountrail
• 29204, loc, Sandy 18-19RD, Stanley oil field, Mountrail

The previous Fidelity / Lime Rock deal was done quite some time ago but these two wells are likely part of the original deal, I suppose. The original Fidelity-Lime Rock involved the Stanley oil field so most likely these are part of the original Stanley deal. Sundry forms back to August, 2015, signed by Lime Rock so I assume these are part of the Stanley prospect. But I don't know; that's just my hunch. The "original Sandy 18-19H (#23912) was dry -- probably a casing problem -- this "RD well" is about 40  feet to the west of the "original" Sandy well. The original Hansen well was also PA'd and a new location, the Hansen 18-19RD about 50 feet to the south.
