A Reader Suggests, If Bored, Take Another Look At #19845 -- March 12, 2020

A reader noted that I must be bored. He was completely correct. I am really, really bored. Sorry. But that's a fact, Jack.

The reader suggested if I run out of things about which to blog, I should take a look at NDIC file numbers, #19845 and #19889.

My reply:

Thank you, much appreciated. How did you guess I was bored? From that long note on the Hess DUC that was reported [yesterday]? LOL. I was bored. Looking for almost anything about the Bakken.

Van Hise Trust (#19845): I know it well --

https://themilliondollarway.blogspot.com/2017/02/idle-rambling-on-recently-discussed-van.html

#19889: an XTO well in Sand Creek. Very, very coincidental.Oasis with two new permits in Sand Creek earlier this week (yesterday, I guess) ... Sand Creek is turning out to be a very, very good field. I was going to do a stand-alone update on Sand Creek. Had not gotten around to it ... thank you.

Yes, one of the problems with the blog: once I post something really spectacular about the Bakken, that post immediately gets buried by five or six more posts in rapid succession. The Van Hise Trust well, #19845, is an excellent example. I covered it in depth a long time ago -- another monster well that I cherry-picked to show just how great the Bakken really is. 

Disclaimer: I am inappropriately exuberant about the Bakken. 

By the way, before I forget, a global oil analyst tweeted this morning that crude oil demand, or was it gasoline demand, was at an all time high. I forget whether it was crude oil demand or gasoline demand and whether it was global or US -- I was scrolling to fast -- we'll sort this out later. But at $30/bbl, crude oil will be flying off the shelves -- or flowing like champagne on New Year's Eve. 

So, back to #19845. First these links:

• from above; and, here; 

No data from FracFocus that this well has been re-fracked (previously posted). A reader confirms that this well has not bee re-fracked. The well (this is the neighbor well to #19845):

Note the small jump in production in late 2018. The actual amount is somewhat irrelevant. What is important is this: something extended the lifetime of this well; the EUR will increase. This is not allowed under Hubbert's peak oil theory.
