Shale Report
Shale oil is an important commodity in the world and as such, shale oil plants are on the rise every year. Bakken shale has seen an incredible potential for growth in recent years, and the production of oil and natural gas is set to rise from 1.44 million barrels per day to 2 million barrels per day.
Bakken oil wells have been shown to have a competitive edge against the Permian Basin and Eagle Ford, allowing operators to make the most of an increase in profit. There are however still limitations to bear in mind.
Andrew Folse, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments:
“Bakken oil wells show competitive performances when compared to recently completed wells in the Permian Basin and Eagle Ford. However, to some extent, the actual potential of the Bakken play is not getting realized due to restrictions on the flaring of natural gas in North Dakota, as most of this flared gas is associated with oil-producing wells in the Bakken formation. As long as gas infrastructure in the region does not expand, the pace of drilling new wells will be constrained and oil production from the Bakken will remain flat or grow at a low rate.”
