Bakken Wire Staff·☀️Morning Wire·

The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) daily activity report for Saturday, July 11, 2026, contained no new filings, according to the agency's data release.

The DMR daily report typically lists new drilling permits approved, well completions reported, wells spudded (drilling commenced), and notices of plugged wells. These filings provide a near-real-time snapshot of operational activity for Bakken Shale and Williston Basin operators.

Days with no reported activity are not uncommon, especially on weekends and during holidays, when regulatory filings and field operations often slow. The report serves as a key tracking tool for industry analysts, mineral rights owners, and service companies monitoring North Dakota's oil and gas sector.

The next report, expected later today, will provide updated activity data for the region.
