Bakken Wire Staff·☀️Morning Wire·

The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) reported no new activity filings in its daily update for Sunday, July 5, 2026, according to the agency's data.

The DMR daily activity report typically lists new drilling permits approved, wells spudded, wells completed, and wells plugged. The absence of new filings indicates no regulatory applications or operational notices were processed by the state for that day.

No-activity days are a normal occurrence in the state's reporting cycle, particularly on weekends and during holidays. The Bakken Wire will continue to monitor the DMR's reports for the latest permitting and drilling activity across the Williston Basin.

DMR Daily Activity Report Shows No New Filings for Saturday

The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) daily activity report for Saturday, October 10, 2026, showed no new regulatory filings, according to the agency's data. The daily report typically lists new drilling permits issued, well completions reported, notices of spudding (the start of drilling), and wells officially plugged. The absence of new activity on a Saturday is a normal occurrence, as regulatory and company filings often slow during weekends and holidays. Such pauses in reported activity do not necessarily reflect a halt in field operations but indicate a lull in the submission of official paperwork to state regulators. The Bakken formation in western North Dakota remains one of the nation's most prolific oil-producing regions. The next report from the DMR, covering activity for Sunday, October 11, is expected to be released on Monday.
