How Crazy Is The Bakken -- This Well Is Hardly Noteworthy -- "Only" 300K In Two Years -- August 22, 2020

How crazy has the Bakken become? For me, I'm losing interest in any well that reports less than 40,000 bbls/month in early / initial production. In the early days of the boom, it was not uncommon for most wells to produce less than 40,000 bbls the first year, or so it seems.

The well:

• 30278, 2,706, WPX, Joseph Eagle 19-18D, Mandaree, a huge well; 76K in less than 2 months; t6/18; cum 303K 6/20;

Production:
