  1. Interesting Enerplus permits and location. This area is really lucrative and Enerplus is at long last going to drill it out it seems. Look at the sections surrounding it and the production! How does one know where the pad will be from the permits of the Enerplus Tennis wells? Will the wells be longer laterals and go all the way into sections 19 and 18 as well? The existing pad with parent wells ('Net' going south, 'Knuckle' going north) is huge. Perhaps they will use that pad to go into the north 2 sections, and this new pad to service 31 and 30? Your thoughts Bruce?

  2. The Enerplus Tennis pad will be tracked here: http://themilliondollarway.blogspot.com/2021/06/enerplus-tennis-pad.html

    The nine Tennis pad wells will be sited in a single line, running NW to SE in SWSE section 31.

    The nine wells will be 1280-acre spacing, two sections, running north, ending in section 30 to the north -- the standard long lateral Bakken well; nothing "unusual" -- everything standard Bakken

    The nine wells will parallel the parent well, #22240, the Net well; one well will be a section line well

    Yet to be published, there will be a "mirror" Enerplus pad, the Baseball Pitch pad sited in either section 7 or section 18-142-92; these wells will run south, and parallel the parent well, #22238, the Knuckle well.

    Yes, these wells will be incredible wells.

    The Enerplus Spider pad lies to the east; those wells are SI/NCW.

    Rimrock Skunk Creek wells are to the west and are very, very good wells.

  3. Thank you for that information Bruce! I'm curious how you know about the additional "mirror" pad they will drill from for 18 and 19. Your information jives with what Enerplus has told me in the past. I have WI in those sections. Drill, baby drill!

    1. That "mirror" pad? That's just a hunch on my part based on how things have developed in the Bakken over the past ten years.

  4. I'm wondering if they will just use the existing pad in 19 and go north to parallel the existing Knuckle parent well. A whole new pad seems odd, but I know they were searching for more locations to efficiently drill out the 4 sections and fix their downstream partner (pipelines) issues in that area. Very exciting stuff! Time to get the checkbook out it seems.
