Monster Wells -- Generation 3 Wells -- October 30, 2017

Note, August 27, 2017: due to the number of wells reporting cumulative production of 500,000 bbls of crude oil, future wells to make the "monster well" page will require 750,000 bbls or early production numbers to suggest they will meet this threshold. Of course, there will be exceptions.  Obviously I miss a lot of "monster" wells but even an incomplete list gives me an idea of what's going on in the Bakken.

Pads:

• MRO wells in Reunion Bay;
  
• the Bohmbach / Antelope pad in Elm Tree, CLR;
• the CLR Salers pad in Antelope-Sanish, section 27-152-94;
• unknown pad that might be able to produce 50,000 bopd;
• Oasis Aagvik pd in Banks
• WPX Alfred Old Dog pad in Reunion Bay
• WPX Emma Owner pad in Spotted Horn
• Enerplus "Heavy Metal" pad in Moccasin Creek
• Bruin's FB James pad in Spotted Horn; 
• the MRO 2A-D-JP-N pad;
• BR's Tailgunner pad;

Making North Dakota Great -- October 30, 2017

This is a great story. Skyscrapers on the prairie.

From myndnow:

A new skyscraper on the North Dakota prairie is just about finished - and it only took a week to take shape.

The structure rises up from the farmland near Lansford - thanks to 24-hour-a-day pouring of concrete for several days.

CHS-SunPrairie's operations manager says the new 83 North Project will be able to load 110 rail cars at a time and will take some pressure off the company's Mohall location.
The building has been growing at a rate of around 20 feet per day - with concrete being pumped around the clock to slowly build up the walls of the six silos and main structure.

The new elevator is expected to be in operation by late spring and will join Minot, Bowbells, and Mohall as sites as shuttle load facilities for the CHS-SunPrairie.

Hell Just Froze Over -- Judge In Pacific Northwest Sides With Coal Company -- October 30, 2017

From Penn Energy: judge sides with developer of Washington coal terminal.

The $680 million terminal, which would ship coal from Montana, Wyoming and other states to Asia, could boost U.S. coal exports by 40 percent. The plans are reviled by environmentalists and Indian tribes because of concerns about global warming, coal dust pollution and potential damage to fisheries on the river.

A Washington state judge on Friday handed a victory to the developers of a massive proposed coal-export terminal on the Columbia River, saying the state acted arbitrarily when it blocked a sublease sought for the project.

Boom! Europe's largest bank, HSBC, reports a pre-tax profit that jumped 448% and no one seems to care or notice. From CNBC:

• Europe's largest bank, HSBC, said Monday its third-quarter pre-tax profit jumped 448 percent year-on-year to $4.6 billion
• HSBC also said it completed 71 percent of the $2 billion share buyback it announced in July
• the bank is listed in Hong Kong, London and New York

Number of Active Rigs In ND Trending Toward 50; Slawson Reports Five DUCs Completed -- October 30, 2017

Active rigs:

$54.19↑	10/30/2017	10/30/2016	10/30/2015	10/30/2014	10/30/2013
Active Rigs	52	34	70	190	182

Five new permits:

• Operators: Hess (4); BR
• Fields: Ross (Mountrail); Elidah (McKenzie)
• Comments: I assume this has occurred before but I have not noticed it; generally, the cases at the hearing dockets for unit line wells suggest a single well (maybe two wells) along the unit line in an overlapping unit; Hess has permits for four (4) unit line wells on the same pad in SWSE 2-156-91 -- later, see first comment: reader is most likely correct; these are probably not unit line wells but rather four wells to the west in a 1280-acre spacing unit (as an example, see the graphic at the EN-Pederson post);

Fourteen permits renewed:

• EOG (10): six Hawkeye permits in McKenzie County; three Wayzetta permits in Mountrail County; and one Van Hook permit in Mountrail County
• HRC (2): two Fort Berthold permits in Dunn County
• Petro-Sentinal (2): one Miller permit and one Coyote Creek permit, both in Bowman County
