California EVs: Governor Newsom says the state will ban the sale of ICE-automobiles in 2035. This announcement comes just after California had to have rolling blackouts a) to protect the grid; and, b) to protect the forests. Obviously the governor has not thought this through.
Ouch! Bismarck City Commission passed the city's 2021 budget that includes over $4 million in property tax increases. Didn't see that coming.

Three permits canceled:

Four producing wells (DUCs) reported as completed:
- 35261, drl/A, CLR, Sefolosha Federal 11-23H, Epping, t--; cum --; off line since 3/20;
- 36721, drl/A, CLR, Vardon 12-14H1, Siverson, t--; cum --; off line since 3/20;

- 36259, drl/A, WPX, Mandaree Warrior 14-11HS, Squaw Creek, t--; cum 142K 7/20; a couple of 36K months;
Taking a closer look: in yesterday's daily activity report, it was reported that about 80 wells were transferred from Taqa USA to D90 Energy, LLC;
- it appears most were in Burke County, but spread out across most oil-producing counties in western North Dakota;
- most recent permit: 16697
- most permits were of wells drilled decades ago
- many (most?) of them are PA
- nothing of immediate interest here;
With today’s oil prices , and today’s costs to drill and complete a well . How many barrels do it take to pay of a well now a days ? I remember at some point it was 100k barrels
ReplyDeleteIn the Bakken: $6 million to bring to production. Divided by $20/bbl = 300,000 bbls.
