Active Drilling Rigs: December 2011

Posted by bakken

For the first time,  the number of Active Drilling Rigs topped 200 earlier this month up 3% from our last report in October.   The drilling activity in the region has not subsided and the mild early winter weather has allowed drilling to continue at full bore for the last 2 months.  The leaders look similar to previous months with Continental Resources leading the way with 21 Rigs.   Whiting Oil & Gas has also stepped up activity and now is 2nd among all players with 19 Drilling Rigs.   Brigham/Statoil also increased to 13 rigs overall and it will be interesting to see if they accelerate their plans under Statoil management.  Look for our upcoming article tomorrow diving into Oasis (OAS: 38.21 0.00%) acreage in the region.
