💡 Operator Intent

Develop multi-well pad with integrated water disposal infrastructure

Proposed work includes 3 Bakken horizontals and one future SWD well; pad designed for 4 wells

Minimize surface footprint through pad consolidation

7.5-acre disturbance area for 4 wells; shared facilities and berm/ditch system

Implement aggressive anti-collision measures for tight spacing

Operator reviewed wells within 500' and addressed anti-collision concerns; detailed directional planning shown

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Pad Construction & Earthwork

Must contact NDIC inspector before construction; 7.5-acre pad with specific berm/ditch requirements

Directional Drilling Services

Complex trajectory with nudge, build, and turn sections; anti-collision requirements with nearby wells

Specialized Cementing

Production liner cemented in lateral with wet shoe configuration; cannot frac out shoe

Waste Management/Filter Sock Disposal

Required leak-proof container on site from spud through flowback; specific regulatory focus
