DMR Daily Activity Report Shows No New Filings for Monday
The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources reported no new permits, spuds, or completions filed on May 25, a common occurrence.
The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) published no new activity filings in its daily report for Monday, May 25, 2026, according to the agency's data release.
The daily report typically lists new drilling permits approved, wells spudded (drilling commenced), wells completed, and wells plugged. A day with no reported activity is normal in the state's oil and gas sector, often occurring on weekends, holidays, or during administrative lulls.
The lack of new filings does not indicate a halt in ongoing operations across the Bakken formation and Williston Basin. Drilling and completion work on previously permitted wells continues, and permit applications submitted to the DMR may still be under review.
Operators and service companies monitor the daily reports for the latest regulatory milestones. The next report, expected later today, will detail any filings processed by the DMR on Tuesday.
