For newbies: good, bad, or indifferent -- who cares whether #20803 was economic or not (it will be, if not already); it held the lease by production for eight years -- no small accomplishment. Ninety percent of non-Bakken wells were dry, non-economic, or unremarkable. Virtually 100% of Bakken wells are economical or serve their purpose. In this case, #20803 held a drilling unit until eleven more wells could be drilled (and more than that will ultimately be drilled).
