The following are the top 50 oil and gas producers in North Dakota as of the end of 2013. The list,
which shows the cumulative amount of oil and gas that the top 50 companies in North Dakota have
produced up to the present time and going back to the discovery of oil in North Dakota more than 60
years ago, was provided by the North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources. This list also reflects
how many wells were in production for each of these top producers during the year of 2013.
As of March 2014, there are 189 rigs actively drilling in the North Dakota oil patch, according to the North Dakota Oil and Gas Division
of the North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources. The number of producing wells in North Dakota as of January 2014
is 10,023, and over 95 percent of drilling still targets the Bakken and Three Forks formations. North Dakota is currently sitting as
number two in oil production in the nation, and as the boom continues to shock the Bakken, our state will continue to strive for the
number one position that Texas has been calling its own.
