Northwest Nebraska Oil Lease Drive Follows Muddy Sand Promise
An expansive oil lease push in northwestern Nebraska aims to test the Muddy sand formation similar to the J sand success in the southern Panhandle. Shell Oil and Grace Oil lead in leases totaling about 200000 acres at 1 per acre with brokers active in Sioux and Dawes counties. Seismic surveys will determine the region’s potential, though immediate drilling is not expected.
