Closer Look At Section Where Petroshale Has Eleven Permits To Site New Wells -- September 14, 2016

Over the last two days, Petroshale was granted permits to site eleven (11) wells in this section, 17-152-94. It appears there are no horizontal wells in this section (which is quite unusual for the Bakken) but it does have a history of quite a bit of activity:

Six vertical wells in this section; five are permanently abandoned; one is still active. Note the Sanish well (#1779) that produced more than a million bbls of crude oil between 1958 and 1988 -- 30 years of production:
