Original Post

This is a second bench Three Forks well. The USGS does not yet have enough lower bench wells in the Three Forks to complete an adequate survey but for those folks that are inappropriately exuberant about the Bakken, this is a pretty nice omen of things to come.  

Production in less than two full months:

• crude oil: 152,453 bbls
• natural gas: 35083 boe
• total boe: 187,536 boe in 55 days

The well:

• 32973, 9,061, MRO, Joshua USA 13-23TFH-2B, Three Forks B2, 56 stages; 11.4 million lbs, Reunion Bay, t9/18; cum 152K 11/18; 11.6 million gallons of water; 89% by weight;
