Vardon -- Siverston -- CLR -- Drilled In 2011 -- Still Flowing, Not On A Pump -- February 11, 2023

It's hard to believe this is the middle of winter, the coldest month of the year where I grew up, and here in Portland, Oregon, absolutely delightful. 

The Vardon wells are tracked here. The wells have all been updated; the majority of these wells, according to the scout tickets, are still flowing, no pumps.

Last night I stumbled upon this well -- sort of a microcosm of the Bakken:
