DUCs. Emergent Group has update on DUCs in the Bakken. This is a pretty good update with lots of graphs and a Q & A format. For example:
What was the typical timeframe for a DUC in North Dakota? In 2013 and 2014, the average days as a DUC was between 60 to 75 days. That changed dramatically in 2015.
The rolling median days spent as a DUC continues to increase, now over 160 days. This analysis capped DUCs at 365 days to remove possible outliers and reporting errors.
Likewise, this graphic is pretty cool -- this is the percentage of wells by pad size across the state of North Dakota. Almost 50% of wells in North Dakota are on 5+ well pads. Think of the cost savings and environmental advantages. CLR can claim bragging rights for advocating multi-well pads, although I'm sure others will toot their own horn. It takes a village to do pad drilling.



If interested, here is another Energent Group post on North Dakota DUCs.

As of April 11, 2016, there were 27 DUCs still on the 1Q15 wells
