From the file report

The well bore:

The primary zone started 26’ beneath the top of the Middle Bakken Formation. 

This pay zone was picked for its production potential and quality of reservoir rock. This was evidenced with gas readings from 4u up to 1,004u, an average of 210u from 11,360’ MD to 18,549’ MD. 

This well ended with a top of our lateral drilling at 10,110’ TVD and the base of our drilling a 10,045’ TVD. 

We did have to make two full trips while drilling; once for the curve assembly at the KOP of 10,600’ MD, and again for the lateral assembly at 11,356’ MD. Five bits used.

If the report stated the percent the well bore was in the seam, I missed it.
