Just a reminder and teaser of comments made during the drilling of both Rodney and Earl.

Very good oil and gas shows were recorded upon drilling into the middle member of the Bakken Formation. Casing will now be run into the hole, and after the cementing of the casing, the horizontal portion of the well will be drilled for another 5,500 feet within the middle member of the Bakken Formation.
