Continental Resources and its density unit tests in Blaine County are coming through for the company’s STACK exploration with results now known for 8 wells from its density tests.

The Oklahoma City company, founded and operated by billionaire Harold Hamm filed six more completion reports this week for its LUDWIG density testing with five showing production of more than 1,400 barrels equivalent a day while the largest came in with 2,561 barrels a day in production. The lowest production was 487 barrels of oil a day.

The reports, as shown on OK Energy Today, indicate all six were in the density located in Blaine County at 22, 16N and 10W, an area located just west of the Chisholm Trail Technology Center on State highway 3 between Watonga and Kingfisher.

Spud dates for all six ranged from March 20 to April 8. Drilling was finished in May, ranging from the first of the month to the 29th of May. Completion dates on the six density wells were all in late September, ranging from the 21st, the 26th, the 28th and three on Sept. 29.

Continental Resources also reported a Blaine County gas well approximately one mile north of Hydro. Spud date was Jan. 10 with drilling finished May 10 and completion Sept. 13. Production from the Reece Jane well totaled 6,112 Mcf of gas.

As OK Energy Today reported earlier this week, Continental Resources had two other LUDWIG wells completed in the same density test, one producing 2,353 barrels of oil equivalent and the other bringing in 1,501 barrels of oil a day.

The company still has four other density test sites in Blaine County.
