Back to the Bakken

Bakken production going forward, 2020, Platts link here, data points (archived):
  • North Dakota Bakken shale gas production projected to climb 10% in 2020
  • production grew 20% in 2019
  • five processing facilities to come online, expand
  • Bakken gas production is expected to grow by 10% in 2020, before slowing down to about 4% annually from 2021 through 2025,
  • last year (2019), Bakken producers relied on well completions, or bringing drilled but uncompleted wells online, to keep production growing. However, one of the lingering constraints within the basin is insufficient processing capacity and natural gas takeaway, which has caused producers to consistently miss gas capture targets established by the North Dakota Industrial Commission.To combat the issue there has been a push for additional infrastructure and as a result: four gas processing plants came online during the second half of 2019 and another five are in the planning stages with in-service dates spread out over the next two years.
