The Bakken Never Ceases To Amaze Me -- Enerplus Cirrus -- Eagle Nest -- February 16, 2020

This continues an on-going theme for the blog (one of many on-going themes): every Bakken well tells a story.

See Enerplus' "Cloudy Pad."

The well:
  • 24163, 759, ERF, Cirrus 149-94-33D-28H, Eagle Nest, 28 stages; 6.5 million lbs, t4/13; cum 266K 8/19;
This might be a fairly non-descript well. I don't know. I haven't taken a very close look. But en route to looking up something else, I noted this:

A jump in production from 1,500 bbls oil / month to 13,000 bbls oil / month, and the well is seven years old. Hubbert says this isn't supposed to happen. LOL. It's happening all the time in the Bakken.

There are seven other wells  on this 9-well pad that are DUCs (SI/NC).

Let's see what FracFocus has to say.

Randomly,
  • 35595, SI/NC, Enerplus, Lenticular 149-94-33C-28H, 33-025-03598, Eagle Nest; no data suggesting a frack yet;
  • 35600, no frack data;
  • 35594, no frack data; that's all I'm going to check;
It looks like they have not been fracked yet, or FracFocus doesn't have the data yet.

Let's look at the map where #24163 is located.

Well, well,well, what do we have here? Coming from the north, drilling to the south, and parallel to #24163, we have this well, a section line well operated by WPX:
  • 36016, 2,951, WPX, Bison 27-34HEL, 33-053-0894, Eagle Nest, t10/19; cum 101K, but according to FracFocus, fracked 7/28/19 to 8/6/19;
Compare the jump in production in the spreadsheet above (8/19, and particularly 9/19) with the dates of the neighboring frack (by a different operator), 7/19 - 8/19.

The Bakken never ceases to amaze me.

By the way, here's the production profile for that WPX Bison well, #36016:
