Random Update Of Inactive Wells And DUCs In The Bakken -- October, 23, 2018

This information is tracked elsewhere and that's where it will be updated (if I continue to do updates). This page will not be updated.

DUCs are pretty much "steady state," though technically they are noticeably increased since a year ago.

The number of inactive wells seems to have decreased significantly since a year ago.

DUCs and inactive wells are more closely correlated, all things being equal, with pad drilling compared to non-pad drilling.
