Well 19105, the AUNE 32-29H is a Bakken well and has been producing since 11-2010. Last production was 04-2013 with 3198 barrels listed.

Well # 9991, the V. J. OSTER 1 is abandoned and has had spotty production for years. In May 2012 it was apparently required to be listed as abandoned due to no production for 12 months.

This is per the NDIC Oil/Gas website

Looking at the well files:

Well 9991 has not produced for over a year. The NDIC sent a certified letter, June 2012, to Paul Rankin, Inc. (well operator), and demanded the well be brought back into production, obtain temporary abandon status, or plug the well and reclaim site...the delivery of certified letter to Rankin was refused.

Well 19105, began producing in Nov. 2010 in the Bakken formation. To date the total production is 143,356 as of April 2013. In April, it produced 3198 bbl and they sold 3609 bbls. Very little of the gas is being sold, most is being flared.

Hope this is the info you are looking for.

Thanks Ed, by the way, would this be considered a decent well numbers wise?

Bill, I would say it was good, the initial flush production may be about done but it should produce more than 50 bbl a day for a couple of years yet and hopefully by the time it does decline that far, they will drill another well.

Bill, for well 19105, it is pretty good, but well 9991 has shown 0 bbl of production since July 2010. The last production in 9991 was 5 bbl of oil in 21 days, back in June 2010.

Ed, if I were to take a wild guess, the state is going to plug that 9991 well. I hope the state has some way to attach a lien to some other property the operator may have in the state. 9991 would have made it a pretty old well. I wonder what kind of bond the operator would have had to put up, if any, for the plugging and reclamation of such a well.
