Plays Covered: Powder River Basin, Bakken, Three Forks, Niobrara, Codell, Mancos, Parkman, Turner, Frontier

Stacked deep with oil-bearing benches, the Bakken and Niobrara are sleeping shale giants ready to rise to new peaks and higher profits. Producers continue to hone their time-tested, efficient processes and squeeze every dollar from their best wells as the market shows signs of hope. The DUG Bakken and Rockies conference and exhibition corrals the regions’ top players to participate in profound discussions on the current stamina of the industry and what’s next for producers in the Rockies and Northern Great Plains.
