Williams to buy Bakken oil acreage for $925 million
finance.yahoo.com
From the article:"...Natural gas producer and pipeline company Williams Cos Inc (WMB.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) agreed to acquire about 86,000 acres in the oil rich Bakken shale for $925 million, in a bid to minimize impact of weak gas prices on its bottomline...."

===================================================================

That's $10,755/acre. The price per acre is getting pretty expensive. I wonder if they are late to the party of they have other revenue streams they are considering (like gathering, processing & transportation) in this transaction.
