The CLR Gale Wells In Cedar Coulee -- A Huge Number Of Wells -- Have Been Updated -- June 12, 2022

Just to show you how remarkable the Bakken is, the well below was drilled back in 2012. Analysts would tell us that by now this would be the end of this well -- the end of its life -- the "dreaded Bakken decline" -- and here, ten years later a huge jump in production.

But note, that "first" month back into production, 11,336 bbls was over 19 days. That extrapolates to 18,000 bbls over 30 days and even more over 31 days. Wow. At $120 oil, that's $2.2 million at the wellhead in one month.

I could be wrong, but this is not generally seen in conventional wells, and the Hubbert Peak Oil theory would say it never happens. 

Disclaimer: I am inappropriately exuberant about the Bakken. I often misread things. All postings are done quickly and almost have content and typographical errors when first posted. I correct errors when I find them. This well -- #22434 -- is not indicative of all Bakken wells, but there certainly are a lot of such wells.

The CLR Gale wells have been updated.

Two Gale wells that were off line last time we checked are now back on line.

One well has shown a significant jump in production:
