📊 Signals (6)

Tier	Signal	Date	Service Impact
Tier 2	Backbuild Order Waiver requested for 5-well pad entering Bakken outside target spacing unit 📄 Letter to NDIC dated January 28th, 2026 Multi-well pad requires regulatory waiver for crossing spacing unit boundaries; operator self-notifying as adjacent unit operator	2026-01-28	Directional Drilling
Tier 2	Approval conditional on 150' north/south and 500' east/west setbacks within 1920-acre unit, with north setback based on production liner cemented with wet shoe and ability to frac out shoe 📄 Stipulations section, Conditions of Approval Specific setback requirements tied to completion design (wet shoe) rather than standard setbacks; indicates engineered approach to boundary compliance	Unknown	Completions / Frac
Tier 3	Pad re-graded and wells moved per revision 02 dated 01-12-26 📄 Pad Layout drawing notes Recent pad redesign indicates changed well locations and earthwork requirements	2026-01-12	General Oilfield Services
Tier 3	Drill cuttings disposal pre-selected to Smoky Butte Environmental, LLC at specific address 📄 Disposal of Drill Cuttings section Specific waste disposal vendor named in permit; closed loop system with metal containers required	Unknown	General Oilfield Services
Tier 3	Operator acknowledges giving 21-31 days prior written notice to operators of wells in same/adjacent pools within 2,640 feet of completion intervals⏰ TIME-SENSITIVE 📄 Operator Assertions section Extended notification window (up to 31 days) for nearby operators; requires planning ahead for completion operations	Relative	General Oilfield Services
Tier 3	Operator must contact NDIC Field Inspector Robert Stafford prior to location construction⏰ TIME-SENSITIVE 📄 Stipulations section Specific inspector named with direct contact requirement before construction begins	Relative	General Oilfield Services

💡 Operator Intent

Develop multi-well pad with complex trajectory crossing spacing unit boundaries

Backbuild Order Waiver request for 5 wells (1H-LL, 2H, 3H, 4H, 5H) entering Bakken outside target unit; pad layout shows 6 well slots including SWD
Implement engineered completion with specific contingency planning

Wet shoe design with ability to frac out shoe; hydraulic toe sleeve as backup in case wet shoe fails; specific perforation placement relative to hard line and section line
Maximize lateral length within regulatory constraints

15,574.55 ft lateral length; maximum legal coordinate calculations provided; trajectory designed to stay within setback requirements

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Site Construction & Earthwork

Pad recently re-graded (01-12-26 revision); 55,300 cu yds cut and 65,110 cu yds fill required; specific slope and compaction specifications

Directional Drilling & MWD

Complex trajectory crossing spacing units; anti-collision concerns with multiple offset wells; specific survey requirements (100 ft vertical, 30 ft curve, 90 ft lateral)

Cementing & Completions

Wet shoe design with frac-out capability; specific cement formulations and volumes; hydraulic toe sleeve backup system; completion notice requirements to adjacent operators

Waste Management

Closed loop system required; cuttings to Smoky Butte Environmental; filter sock container required from spud through flow-back
