Keep On Drilling y'All -- August 23, 2020

I'll complete this post later. I've run out of time.

One comment: of more interest to me than the change in the number of active rigs from day-to-day, is the change in operators drilling in the Bakken. We've recently added another one: an operator who has three new oil & gas permits, as well as a SWD permit. 

We'll get back to that later.

But before I go:

PGA FedEx Cup Standings -- Top 70 advance. Link here. Of interest:

• Phil Mickelson: #75
• Tiger Woods: #57
• Tony Finau: #29
• Rory McIlroy: #12
• Bryson DeChambeau: #7
• Justice Thomas: #2
  
• Dustin Johnson: #1
  

Subject to change after today's tournament. 

When you look at Dustin Johnson's wins since the 2007 - 2008 season, it is clear that the baton has passed from Tiger Woods to Dustin Johnson. 

Dustin is 36 years old. Probably at his peak.

Tiger is 44 years old, clearly on the down slope. 

Phil, at 50, is significantly older. 

Bryson DeChambeau at age 26 years old seems a lot older; he has several years to challenge Dustin Johnson. 

Look at the "names" who did not make the FedEx Cup championship "70":

• Phil Mickelson: #75
• Justin Rose: #91
• Tommy Fleetwood: #92
• Rickie Fowler: #94
• Brooks Koepka: #104
• Zach Johnson: #105
• Jordan Spieth: #107
• Sergio Garcia: #135
