Idle Rambling -- Random Update Of The "Snake" Wells -- January 11, 2019

This page will not be updated.

The "snake" wells are tracked here.

Just look at the cumulative production of three of these wells.

• 24337, 2,519, EOG, Hawkeye 3-2413H, Antelope-Sanish pool (all EOG paperwork says "Bakken" but "Sanish" is inked in on most recent sundry form -- this is a Sanish pool well); 28 stages; 9.7 million lbs sand; t5/13; cum 754K 11/18;
• 26737, 3,374, Enerplus, Ribbon 152-94-18B-19H, Sanish, again, much of the paperwork says "Bakken," and the target was clearly the middle Bakken (middle Bakken "C") but the scout ticket says the Sanish pool; 42 days (316 hours) of drilling; 42 stages; 10.0 million lbs sand; t4/14; cum 624K 11/18;
• 26990, 3,102, Enerplus, Hognose 152-94-18B-19H-TF, Sanish, specifically Three Forks 2nd bench, three laterals; 60 days (533 hours) drilling, 41 stages; 9.7 million lbs sand; t4/14; cum 539K 11/18;

For newbies: only a year or so ago, I considered a cumulative production of 500,000 bbls of oil (not boe) as a really, really big deal. No more. We're starting to see a lot of wells go over 500,000 bbls cumulative. My hunch is that about five years from  now we will start seeing many Bakken wells go over the million-bbl mark, enough to make is common.
