BR Case 30888 To Place Sixteen Wells In A 3840-Acre Unit -- Sixteen 3-Mile Horizontals -- May 2, 2024

Locator: 47037BR.

From the NDIC May, 2024, hearing dockets, this is a case, not a permit:

Case 30888, BR, Elidah-Bakken, i) terminate two overlapping 2560-acre unit; ii) establish an overlapping 3840-acre unit, 16 wells, McKenzie County --

On a six section standup drilling unit, the company would likely put sixteen wells at the halfway mark and drill eight 3-mile wells to the north, and eight 3-mile wells to the south. Because it's a new drilling unit, in which there are no current wells, this means that the operator will drill sixteen wells in the six-section unit.
