Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Marathon Oil Corp. announced results from two high-volume Three Forks completions and a high-rate Middle Bakken well at a six-well pad (Tat 13) at its West Myrmidon prospect. The Reunion Bay Field wells are in Section 22-151n-94w in Mountrail County, N.D. The #12-23TFH Jerome-USA was completed flowing 9.166 Mbbl of oil, 9.018 MMcf of gas and 7.107 Mbbl of water per day. Production is from a lateral in Upper Three Forks (Three Forks B1 zone). It was drilled to the northeast to 23,722 ft, 10,864 ft true vertical, and bottomed in Section 19-151n-93w. It was tested on a 60/64-in. choke after 56-stage fracturing between 11,214 and 23,588 ft. It was drilled under the Missouri River. The #13-23TFH Lamarr-USA was tested flowing 8.887 Mbbl of oil, 10.628 MMcf of gas and 5.541 Mbbl of water per day from Three Forks. It was drilled to the northeast to 23,740 ft, 10,777 ft true vertical. Production is from an acidized and fractured zone at 11,266-23,603 ft. The #14-23H Whitebody-USA was tested flowing 8.702 Mbbl of oil, with 10.023 MMcf of gas and 5.818 Mbbl of water per day. Production is from a horizontal lateral in Middle Bakken extending from 11,017 ft eastward to 23,630 ft. It bottomed in Section 19-151n-93w and the true vertical depth is 10,706 ft. It was tested on a 64/64-in. choke following 57-stage fracturing between 11,114 and 23,499 ft with a flowing casing pressure of 2,150 psi. The discovery is on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation and, like #12-23TFH Jerome-USA, its lateral extends under the Missouri River.
