Squires Oil Field -- Updated -- March 28, 2022

Squires oil field, just on the outside of Williston, on the north side, has always been one of my favorite Bakken fields. Because it was close to Williston, I drove through it often with my dad. It never was a great field, but a steady field.

Squires oil field is tracked here, but it's no longer updated as much as in the early days. 

Now, it's in the news again.

Current map. Wow, it's expanded. Two new 1920-acre units (red star, blue star); the new 3840-acre overlapping units will incorporate the six sections (various).

In the most recent hearing dockets, April, 2022, these are the cases (not permits):

• 29284, Oasis, Squires-Bakken, establish a standup 1920-acre unit; sections 17/20/29-155-102, four wells; Williams County;
  
• 29285, Oasis, Squires-Bakken, establish a standup 1920-acre unit; sections 18/19/30-155-102; four wells, Williams County;
