Crescent Point Energy Eyes Eight Wells In A 640-Acre Drilling Unit Northeast Of Williston -- October 23, 2020

This is almost not worth posting, but there may be some readers who are interested. I was interested in looking at the case, but once I saw it, I would have moved on ... but with a blog comes great responsibilities.

I'm talking about this case from the November, 2020, NDIC hearing dockets. This is a case, not a permit:

• The case 28613, Crescent Point Energy, Wheelock-Bakken, 8 wells on a 640-acre unit, section 36-156-98, Williams County;

What caught my eye: 8 wells in a 640-acre drilling unit. We don't see many 640-acre drilling units in the Bakken any more.

This is in a very, very non-descript, area of the Bakken, northeast of Williston. 

The only well in this drilling unit, and it's inactive:

• 19209, IA/539, Crescent Point Energy, State 1-36H-156-98, Wheelock, t11/10; cum 80K; off line as of 4/20; remains off line 8/20;
