The Hess BB-Budahn Wells -- Recently Off-Line -- Are Pretty Much All Back On Line With Good Results -- January 15, 2023

Disclaimer: All my posts are done quickly. There will be content and typographical errors. If anything on any of my posts is important to you, go to the source. If/when I find typographical / content errors, I will correct them. 

Notes like these, with lots of data, and many, many updates are particularly prone to having errors. If this is important to you, go to the source. I'm less interested in individual well production as I am in understanding the Bakken. 

The Hess BB-Budahn wells are tracked here.

This page will not be updated. The wells will be updated at the link above.

Production data has been updated for all wells; those with some additional information in bold preceded by three asterisks.

Several show significant increased production, something the theory says should not happen.
