As of August 2026, Hydra Services, LLC is a minimal-activity ND operator carrying a portfolio of 29 total wells (26 active, none currently producing), zero pending cases, zero authorized wells in the pipeline, and no hearing activity on the horizon. The only recent regulatory footprint is a dismissed SWD Authorization Application in Williams County's Ft. Buford Field, signed June 2026 — suggesting the company attempted to establish saltwater disposal infrastructure and was turned back.

What stands out

26 wells are classified 'active' yet none are producing — an unusual gap that points to wells held in some interim status (shut-in, awaiting completion, or administratively active) rather than generating revenue.
The only regulatory move on record — a SWD application — was dismissed, not withdrawn. A dismissal typically signals a procedural or substantive deficiency found by the Commission, not a voluntary pullback, which raises questions about the operator's readiness to execute even support-infrastructure filings.
Zero pending cases and no upcoming hearings mean there is no visible path to near-term development activity; momentum indicators across the board are flat zeros with no win-rate calculable.

Docket & Locations

Hydra Services has no pending cases, no scheduled hearings, and no active development locations on file as of August 2026. The sole recent docket entry is Order 34151 — a dismissed SWD Authorization Application in Williams County, Ft. Buford Field, signed June 11, 2026. Williams County is one of the Williston Basin's core producing counties, making the SWD dismissal notable: the company was positioned in the right geography but could not clear the regulatory bar.

Recent Orders, Cases & Names

Only one order appears in the record: the June 2026 SWD dismissal in Williams County. There are no associated case names, no counterparties, and no convergence activity with other operators. The absence of names and related-party data makes it impossible to assess whether Hydra is operating independently or as a service-side entity connected to a larger working-interest group.
