Mountrail County, ND: GeoResources Bakken Shale update
By Andrea: http://oilshalegas.com
GeoResourcs Inc. (GEOI) recently release an operational update on their activity in the Bakken Shale, located in Mountrail, ND:
To date, in our non-operated program located in Mountrail and adjacent counties, they have participated in 72 wells drilled by our primary operator, Slawson Exploration, with a 100% success rate. In addition, they own minor working interests in numerous wells within the Bakken/Three Forks play. Slawson is currently running three drilling rigs and they continue to acquire additional acreage and well interests, when reasonably available.
At present, 9 -12 wells are scheduled for the 4th Quarter of 2010 where they expect to have working interests in the 5% to 15% range. Additional wells are in the process of being permitted and scheduled. Completed well costs, including surface equipment and production facilities for single lateral wells drilled on 640 acre units are currently estimated at approximately $5.0 million and at $6.2 million for 1,280 acre units. Recent wells drilled on 640 acre units have had 18-22 frac stages per well, while wells drilled on 1,280 acre units have had up to 41 stage fracs.

Williams County, ND: GeoResources Inc. - Bakken Shale Update
By Andrea: http://oilshalegas.com
GeoResources Inc. (GEOI) recently released an operational update on the Bakken Shale located in Williams County, ND. They have acquired new land and have begun drilling in the area:
On September 25, 2010, they initiated drilling on the Williams County acreage with the Carlson 1-11H well, a Middle Bakken test in Section 11, T157N-R103W. The initial location is a 640 acre drilling unit and they have a 47.5% working interest. We also plan to drill two 1,280 acre spacing units immediately following the Carlson well. Their working interests in these locations are 34% and 35%, respectively.
GeoResources acquired approximately 50,000 net leasehold acres in an AMI covering about 115,000 acres and as mentioned in prior releases, brought in industry partners to participate in development. As operator, they retained a 47.5% working interest, representing approximately 24,000 net acres. Assuming full development on a 1,280 acre spacing unit basis, they have a majority interest and control about forty (40) units and have working interests in another forty-two (42) units. Where they have a minority interest in a spacing unit, they will continue to focus on increasing our interests; thereby increasing the likelihood that they will be the designated unit operator.

Brigham Exploration Company: Bakken Shale Update
By Andrea: http://oilshalegas.com
Brigham Exploration Company (BEXP)recently released an operational update announcing the completion of new wells in the Bakken Shale in Williams County, North Dakota and in Mountrail County, North Dakota:
Brigham Exploration Company (BEXP) announced the completion of the State 36-1 #2H Rough Rider Three Forks well, its first Three Forks well west of the Nesson Anticline, at an early 24-hour peak flow back rate of approximately 2,356 barrels of oil equivalent. Brigham also announced three Bakken completions, including the Domaskin 30-31 #1H Ross project area well at an early 24-hour peak flow back rate of approximately 4,675 barrels of oil equivalent. As a result, Brigham has now completed 36 consecutive high frac stage long lateral Bakken and Three Forks wells in North Dakota with an average early 24-hour peak flow back rate of approximately 2,684 barrels of oil equivalent. In addition, Brigham announced the acquisition of additional leasehold covering approximately 10,200 net acres in the Williston Basin, approximately 7,600 of which is located in its core Rough Rider project area. Finally, Brigham provided an update on its drilling and completion activities in its core 205,600 net acres in the Williston Basin.
Bud Brigham, the Chairman, President and CEO, commented, "We're extremely excited by the results from our State 36-1 #2H Rough Rider Three Forks well. This well has generated an apparent record early 24-hour production rate for a Three Forks well west of the Nesson Anticline, and begins to potentially de-risk as many as 362 net Rough Rider Three Forks drilling locations. Combining our 571 drilling locations that are already significantly de-risked with as many as 362 net Rough Rider Three Forks drilling locations could result in our de-risked drilling inventory growing to up to 933 potential net locations. We believe success in the Three Forks in our Rough Rider project area represents a significant net asset valuation accretion event for our stockholders and other stakeholders."
Bud Brigham continued, "Our staff continues to manufacture oil wells on our current core acreage and deliver exceptional results. We've now completed 36 consecutive high frac stage long lateral Bakken and Three Forks wells in North Dakota with an average early 24-hour peak production rate of approximately 2,684 barrels of oil equivalent. Furthermore, with our Domaskin completion, we now have three of the four highest initial production rate Bakken wells in the Williston Basin."
Bud Brigham continued, "The results from our four recently completed wells should have a significant positive effect on our fourth quarter 2010 production volumes and our year-end proved reserves. In addition, our production volumes and proved reserves should be further enhanced by our two additional wells that are currently fracing, one of which is located in our Ross project area proximate to our record Bakken wells."
Bud Brigham concluded, "Our land department continues to actively acquire quality acreage in and adjacent to our core areas at attractive costs. We closed on an additional large acreage acquisition in Rough Rider representing approximately 6,000 net acres, all of which is core, and a significant portion of which is held by production. We believe that our track record of 36 consecutive strong producers provides us with a competitive advantage while leasing and we hope to continue to capitalize on that advantage."

Williams County, ND: Bakken Shale Update
By Andrea: http://oilshalegas.com
Since early August 2010, Brigham Exploration Company (BEXP) has expanded its acreage position in the Williston Basin in the Bakken Shale by approximately 10,200 net acres to an estimated 368,400 net acres. In its core Rough Rider project area, Brigham has expanded its acreage position by approximately 7,600 net acres, including a large acreage position obtained as a result of a transaction entered into with Zavanna, LLC. Inclusive of the acreage acquisitions, Brigham now has total core acreage of approximately 205,600 net acres.
Williston Basin Drilling and Completion Update
In its Rough Rider project area, Brigham announced the completion of the Larsen 3-10 #1H and the Boots 13-24 #1H Bakken wells, which produced at early 24-hour peak flow back rates of approximately 3,090 (2,631 barrels of oil and 2.75 MMcf) and 1,946 (1,773 barrels of oil and 1.04 MMcf) barrels of oil equivalent, respectively. The Larsen and Boots are located in Williams County and were both completed with 31 fracture stimulation stages. Brigham's working interests in the Larsen and Boots are approximately 72% and 74%, respectively. Brigham has completed 26 long lateral high frac stage Bakken wells in Rough Rider with an average early 24-hour peak rate of approximately 2,421 barrels of oil equivalent.
Brigham's accelerated development of its core operated acreage in its Rough Rider and Ross project areas is proceeding with four operated rigs drilling in Rough Rider and one operated rig drilling in Ross. Another operated rig is expected to arrive in early October and additional rigs are expected to arrive in January and May 2011, respectively, at which time Brigham will be continuously drilling with eight operated rigs.
Brigham currently has two wells fracing and nine wells waiting on completion. In the first quarter 2011, Brigham expects to add additional fracture stimulation capacity. At that time, Brigham estimates that approximately eight wells per month will be fracture stimulated and brought on line to production.
