Updates

March 23, 2012: interesting oil field for two reasons -- follow the Lodgepole story and the Liberty Resources story. Read the first first comment at the link; if it's valid, it speaks volumes about "who" knows about the Bakken and "who's" investing in it.

Original Post

Tyrone oil field has seen increased activity lately. This is a single-township oil field, T156N-101W, 36 sections north of Williston.

Drive straight north on US 2&85 out of Williston, up to the 13-mile corner, and you will be on the east side of this field.

If you were to turn west at the 13-mile corner, you would track a series of wells, running east to west, all the way to the next field, Bonetrail (12 sections) and then to Bull Butte (70 sections to the Montana state line).

Running east to west in Tyrone oil field:

I've written about the Clark well before, and have it tagged for follow-up in February, 2014.
 Rambling, overheard at the Economart:

• If time is running out on leases....
• And, if leased acreage is held by production ...
• And, if there is a huge backlog in fracking...
• And, if there is a huge supply/demand mismatch for sand, ceramics ....
• Doesn't it follow that to drill a well where leased acreage is already held by production -- means that the operator has found something particularly interesting about that location to drill again (of course, in cases like the Sanish and Whiting, sometimes the payoff is so good that infill wells are drilled for the cash flow)...

Also, note Liberty Resources, a relative newcomer to the Bakken with somebody providing lots of financial capital behind the scenes, has the Berger well in this field.  I've recently posted more about those behind Liberty Resources (March, 2012).
