Back on 8/19, I posted this:
16768, EOG, a huge well; typical decline rate; 668K 8/19; petering out; what will they do with these wells; incredibly good wells; just let them decline to nothing; re-frack or re-drill nearby?The well:
- 16768, 1,441, EOG, Austin 2-03H, Parshall, t12/07; cum 675K 6/20;
Comments: this well is located on the far eastern fringe of Bakken; unless the price of oil appreciates significantly, I can't imagine a lot of activity this far east. So, I was surprised when this well brought back on line after being shut in in 4/20 like most of the Bakken during global demand destruction. And initial production when brought back on line looked pretty impressive.
But more interesting, there are three locations on a single pad to the east of this well in the same section yet to be drilled.

The three locations to the east:

- 26626, loc, EOG, Austin 33-0333H, Parshall,
- 26625, loc, EOG, Austin 32-0333H, Parshall,
Years and years ago, I talked about the numbering system of EOG. I got no pushback on my observations, and will leave it at that.
