A Closer Look At The Two New Whiting Permits From Today's Daily Activity Report -- An NDIC Typographical Error? Or Am I Missing Something? -- November 29, 2021

NDIC places two new Whiting permits in the Parshall oil field in today's daily activity report, but I think the two new permits are for wells that will be in the Sanish oil field.

From today's post regarding today's daily activity report:

Two new permits, #38681 - #38682, inclusive:

• Operator: Whiting
• Field: Parshall (Mountrail)
• Comments:
• Whiting has permits for two new LBJ wells in SWSW 14-153-91; sited 725 FSL and 415 FWL; and, 755 FSL and 415 FWL;
• Error: section 14-153-91 is in the Sanish, and Whiting already has existing LBJ sites in section 14-153-91 and they are labeled as Sanish wells on the scout tickets, not Parshall oil field. Sanish and Parshall are very, very close at that location, so it's possible I suppose, but highly doubtful.
