All sections are now held by production and most sections have eight to ten horizontals, including some running along the section line due to 2560-acre spacing throughout. The entire field is also spaced at 1280-acre drilling units.
It appears that the oil field is pretty much owned by Burlington Resources.
It's a confusing field to sort out: because the field is small and many of the wells are 2560-acre spacing, they could be sited in Johnson Corner oil but are considered part of another oil field. This must affect data for NDIC when determining how much oil comes from which oil fields. Whatever. Here is an example of many wells sited in one section.
Sited in section 10-150-96, a vertical Madison/Bakken well:
- 9519, 206/15, Siana Oil & Gas, Tank 1-3, Johnson Corner, vertical Bakken/Madison; t11/82/t10/84; cum 57K 10/15; cum 33K 10/15;
Sited in section 10-150-96 and run north into Camel Butte, 2560-acre drilling unit, sections 3/10-150-96 & sections 27/34-151-96, except for 18047 which is a 1280-acre well:
- 18047, 1,620, BR, Teton 21-3H, Johnson Corner, t9/10; cum 207K 10/15;

Bakken 101
The post above regarding Johnson Corner provides another data point regarding the Bakken. The NDIC tracks how much each oil field produces. This is a good example of how difficult it is to sort this out. In this case, because Johnson Corner is a small field and there are 2560-acre spacing units extending into neighboring fields, one can have a 4-section well draining oil from two different fields, from Johnson Corner and Camel Butte, for example. The well has to be "assigned" to one field or the other. So a Johnson Corner/Camel Butte well (50/50) might be "assigned" to Camel Butte. I'm not quite sure how the "assignment" is made but this field offers an opportunity to see if there is process.
