Random Update Of A WPX Wolf Well In Squaw Creek -- April 20, 2018

The well:
  • 19973, 141 (no typo), WPX, Wolf 27-34H, Squaw Creek, t7/11; cum 265K 2/18;
Comments:
  • this well started out as a very poor well based on the IP (141)
  • initial production (first year) was pretty good for Bakken wells back in 2011, but nothing great
  • it puttered along; quickly declining and plateauing to 1400 bbls/month
  • then, no evidence of a re-frack (no FracFocus data; no sundry form) -- but after being off-line for less than 30 days, production spiked from 1300 bbls/month to almost 9,000 bbls/month 
  • it was taken off-line for awhile -- probably while work was being done on the pad; the operator put a storage tank on the pad
  • think about that: this well has been producing since 2011; everyone says the decline rate is atrocious; but something happened in 2018 -- seven years later -- that the company thought it cost-effective to put a(nother) tank on the pad; see recent production below
The Wolf wells are tracked here. They need to be updated. The graphic needs to be updated.
