Petro-Hunt Wells -- Production Data Updated -- Through January, 2025

The Petro-Hunt wells in Charlson oil field are some of the most exciting wells in the Bakken.

 

March 8, 2025: the Original Post was for production through November, 2024. Since then I have updated data through January, 2025. The narrative below reflects only that data trorugh the original spreadsheet (through November, 2024).

Original Post

A reader shared with me the wells in which they have interests. The reader's interests are very, very low, so the reader does not receive much in the way of royalties from these wells.

For me, I'm not concerned about the royalties: I simply find the data incredibly interesting and more than happy to share the data with the reader.

In a long note like this with lots of data and lots of numbers, there will be content and typographical errors; I will correct them as I find them.

Takeaways:

• from the reader's production statement, I count 45 wells; 
• this accounts for all wells of which I am aware for this reader
  
• the most recent production station shows production data through November 2024
• three wells (#43, #44, and #45 in the spreadsheet below) were not on the most recent production statement; 
• one is still confidential and reporting no "runs";
• two of the wells have just recently come off confidential list and have only reported production for last three months
• the third well, #38359, is most likely producing but it is still on confidential list; this well will come off confidential list this next week (February 8, 2025)
• the jump in total production for these 45 wells has jumped significantly
• April, 2024: 66,920 bbls
• November, 2024: 105,697 bbls
• the reader's most recent statement did not include production of:
• 28,380 bbls in November, 2024
• 22,729 bbls in October, 2024
• 3,381 bbls in September, 2024
• many older wells had significant increases in production, most likely from newer wells being fracked and affecting neighboring wells positively (whoo-hoo)
