October 22, 2019: a reminder -- western boundary of the reservation; "owned" by EOG; will put 22 wells on one 2560-acre spacing unit (April, 2013, dockets) --
Case 20107: Application of EOG Resources, Inc. for an order authorizing the drilling, completing and producing of a total of not more than eleven wells on an existing 1920-acre spacing unit comprised of Sections 25 and 36, T.152N., R.95W. and Section 1, T.151N., R.95W.; a total of not more than eleven wells on an existing 1280-acre spacing unit comprised of Sections 30 and 31, T.152N., R.94W.; and a total of not more than twenty-two wells on an existing 2560-acre spacing unit comprised of Sections 6, 7, 18 and 19, T.151N., R.94W., Clarks Creek-Bakken Pool, McKenzie County, ND, eliminating any tool error requirements and such other relief as is appropriate.October 22, 2019: after posting the original note -- which was posted mostly to show how busy some parts of the Bakken are -- a reader suggested this was likely 320-acre spacing. In fact, there are no 320-acre spacing units in Clarks Creek. In the graphic below, the 320-acre units are highlighted in light purple (there are six 320-acre units in the graphic below, all in Antelope oil field). I've removed the locations of all the wells and horizontals and outlined Clarks Creek oil field in a heavier red line to make it easier to see:
The spacing in Clarks Creek is very unusual; it's hard to tell for sure but it looks something like this:
- no 320-acre units
- only one 640-acre unit
- two (?) 960-acre units
- two (?) 1280-acre units
- several 2560-acre units
- in the graphic below, almost all of the wells are 2560-acre spaced wells
Original Note
22 well sites.
Distance, west to east: slightly less than half a mile.
Definition of an ideal well: pays for itself in six months; out-performs expectations; and, maintains a revenue stream for 35 years.
