From A Jack To A King -- January 11, 2022

Updates

Later, 7:19 p.m. CT: see first comment. The file report shows this Three Forks well was fracked / stimulated 9/22/2017; 61 stages with 14.54 million lbs of proppant. FracFocus does not have any data regarding this well.

Original Post 

We last checked in on this well back in 2017. It was drilled six years earlier, in 2011, and I was never able to determine if it had been fracked. 

At best, as of 2017, it was a mediocre well, reporting cumulative production of around 100,000 bbls. But, wow, holy mackerel, checking tonight, this well has reported more than one million bbls crude oil cumulative. Full production here.

The well:

  • 20212, 482, Whitman 3-34H, Oakdale, fracked?; t9/11; cum 103K 1/17; API: 33-035-01261; no evidence this was fracked; cum 1.014994 million 11/21; production since 2014; note huge jump in production 2018. tell me about the dreaded Bakken decline again; and, Hubbert's peak oil theory?

  1. I think it was originally drilled short. Downhole problems. Then re-entered at a later date and drilled to depth.

    1. Thank you. That makes a lot of sense. What I love about that story is that oilmen, when they know there's oil there, will keep going after it until they get their well, one way or the other. Great story. Kudos to the roughnecks, the geologists, others involved. If I remember, I might check the file report. There is just so much to cover. Thank you for taking time to write.
