Wow, I never get tired of exploring the Bakken.

I picked this pad at random a few minutes ago.

First thing I did was look at production status of #33531:

First thing I noticed: the well is off line and has been offline since mid-May, 2023. Only one reason for this well to be off line: fracking in the neighboring area. So let's look at the map.

Nothing there to help us out.

In addition, nothing new with regard to the wells on this pad. But it's obvious, they're getting ready to be fracked.

We'll come back to this later.
