North Dakota DMR Reports No New Activity Filings for Thursday

The daily report from state regulators showed no new permits, spuds, completions, or pluggings for July 2, 2026.

Bakken Wire Staff·☀️Morning Wire·

The North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) reported no new activity in its daily filing report for Thursday, July 2, 2026, according to the agency's data release.

The DMR's daily activity report typically lists new drilling permits issued, wells spudded (drilling commenced), wells completed, and wells plugged. A day with no new filings indicates a pause in administrative and field reporting to the state agency.

Such no-activity days are a normal occurrence in the state's oil and gas regulatory system. They can happen on any day but are more common on weekends and around holidays. The lack of new filings for Thursday precedes the Independence Day holiday weekend.

The report serves as a key daily indicator of near-term drilling and completion work planned by operators across the Bakken formation and the broader Williston Basin. The next report, expected Monday, will provide updated activity data.
