Halo Effect -- #16317 -- August 8, 2022

This is exactly what analysts are missing about the Bakken. No one else talks about this. 

Here's another example.

This DUC was reported as completed, August 8, 2022:

  • 34817, 1,169, XTO, Myrna 21X-2B, Alkali Creek,

This Myrna well and its sister wells on the same pad hit the following well "almost perpendicularly":

  • 16317. 278, XTO, Marmon Hahn Trust 11X-11, Alkali Creek, t9/07; cum 329K 6/22;

Two things:
  • one: production of that old well jumped 20-fold, from 1,000 bbls/month to 20,000 bbls/month:
  • two: the old well was a pretty lousy well from the beginning -- see monthly production when it was first drilled back in 2007 -- around 4,000 bbls/month at the very beginning and then the dreaded Bakken decline, but now, fourteen year later, production jumps five-fold after newer wells in the area are drilled.

I used to track all these "halo" wells at this post, but it's become overwhelming. I tag them but I won't add them to thee index at that linked site any more. But I'm no less excited when I see these wells.
