DUCs In North Dakota Continue To Increase -- August 17, 2018
A few months ago a reader raised a question regarding my thoughts on DUCs.I suggested that operators in North Dakota were "managing their assets," suggesting that it is not due to shortage of frack crews. Obviously it's a combination of both, but I think "managing their assets" is the bigger reason why DUCs are increasing. About two months ago, John Kemp said we were entering a period of "severe backwardation." For newbies, North Dakota double the number of months operators were required to complete their wells once spud. Up until the Saudi Surge of 2014 - 2016, North Dakota required operators to complete their wells within one year of spud; operators now have two years, and can go longer with a waiver.
Except for a decrease back in January, 2018, the number of DUCs has been steadily increasing. The data is updated here; this page won't be updated.
These are the recent stats for DUCs:
June, 2018: 993, up 38 from previous report
inactive: 1,458, down 111
May, 2018: 955, up 13 from previous report

inactive: 1,554, up 85
December, 2017: 877, down 6
