Three New Oasis Nelsen State Federal Wells -- March 29, 2026

The reader already has royalties from three older Oasis Nelsen State Federal wells. 

Now, the reader appears to have three more Oasis Petroleum Nelsen State Federal wells. They are currently being drilled according to the map below. 

I inadvertently labeled some Nelsen State wells and some Nelsen Federal wells. Part of the confusion: the original names were slightly different than the current names.  The names below are correct: 

  • 42410, loc, Oasis, Nelsen State Federal 5202 13-13 2B, Indian Hill, 
  • 42412, loc, Oasis, Nelsen State Federal 5202 13-13 4B, Indian Hill, 
  • 42413, loc, Oasis, Nelsen State.  5202 13-13 5B, Indian Hill, 

These are three-mile long laterals -- very long laterals.

These are all four-section (2560-acre) spacing, thus royalties will be less than the standard Bakken wells spaced for two sections (1280-acre). 

These are going to be some very good wells. The area produces some nice wells. In addition, they will drain oil from four sections (not just two) and they are long horizontals, three miles long. But again, because they are spaced at 2560 acres rather than 1280 acres, the royalties will be half what it might otherwise be. So these three wells are probably more like two new wells, rather than three, if that makes sense.
