Random Look At An Old EOG Short Lateral -- Coming Up On 600,000 Cumulative Bbls -- March 18, 2018

This is for newbies and for me, just for the fun of it. Seriously, I am just passing some time -- no need to really spend any time on this well. Maybe this would be a great time for a music video:

This is just an interesting example of a Bakken well. As far as I can tell it was fracked only once, back in 2010 with 17 stages, and using slightly less than 2 million lbs of sand. It is a short lateral. Look at the production profile. Fracked once but probably a number of "work-overs," pumps, neighboring wells, etc., which all affected production. The jump in production in 2017 was probably due to a neighboring well (#31206) being fracked. The continued good production in 2013 was probably due to another neighboring well (#24855) being fracked. This tells me this well (#18825) is a great candidate for a re-frack.

The well:

By 2016 this well was down to 2,000 bbls/month -- still a nice well, but clearly declining. And then in 2017, back up to 5,000 bbls/month.

And the Bakken is filled with these kinds of wells, and that's why it's so difficult to predict how all this will play out.
