Murfin Drilling Company, Inc. is a small but active North Dakota operator with 13 total wells, 4 active, and 3 currently producing. As of mid-2026, the company's entire regulatory footprint is concentrated in Dunn County, where it just secured two Forced Pooling Orders (Nos. 35818 and 35819, both signed 2026-06-04) in the St. Anthony-Bakken Pool — the direct result of cases 32892 and 32893, which both carried 100% ML progression probability and a 100% historical win rate. There are no pending cases, no upcoming hearings, and no authorized wells yet, placing Murfin squarely at the spacing-approved-but-pre-permit stage in this formation.
