So, we have at least three operators drilling U-shaped wells; some are four-mile laterals; some are two-mile laterals.
See these links:
- Kraken, December 21, 2025: link here. This post has been updated with the second well posted, and production for both wells updated. These are four section spacing with four mile laterals, U-shaped.
- CLR, June 28, 2025: link here. This post has been updated with three new CLR Vera wells. These may be single-section spacing; two mile laterals, U-shaped.
- Oasis, October 23, 2025: link here. Two-section spacing, four-mile laterals.

- this well lateral is 4-miles long;
- the pad is located across the road from the Forsyth well, but makes a complete “u” around the Forsyth well
- goes all the way to the south end of section 36 then makes a “u” and goes back to the north.
