The Bakken is a key element in the Hess Corporation’s strategy to turn all its major assets into big cash generators by 2022, stepping their net cash flow up by more than 250 percent by 2025.
A detailed plan for the company’s Bakken assets was discussed during a recent investor day, in which company officials said they plan to run up to six rigs and three hydraulic fracturing crews in the Bakken for 2019, and bring online 160 wells.
