Bakken Wire Staff·☀️Morning Wire·

The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) reported no new oil and gas activity filings for Saturday, June 6, according to its daily activity report.

The DMR's daily report typically lists new drilling permits approved, wells spudded (drilling commenced), well completions, and notices of well plugging. The absence of new filings on a weekend is a normal occurrence.

Permitting and operational activity in the Bakken formation often slows during weekends and holidays, leading to occasional days with no new public filings. The DMR system updates each business day with the previous day's reported activity.

The next report, covering activity for Sunday, June 7, is expected to be released on Monday, June 8.
